The Fruitcake

---

Fruitcakes are a marvel
of the baker's mystic art;
full of so much candied fruit,
they never fall apart.
Instead they harden with the years
into a solid brick
that no one ever slices;
all you do is take a lick.
They're passed down in a family
like some damaged DNA --
a dirty little secret
on this happy Holiday.
Should ever you recieve one
do not panic but be quick
to soak it in hard liquor
and insert a candle wick.
Then put it in the attic
'til the next Fourth of July,
when carefully you light it
and bright fireworks let fly.
