The Fruitcake's Lament

I write this to you, a  fruitcake's lament
But to gain pity is not my intent.
I must protest all  this bashing goop...
Oh who am I kidding?  So here's the scoop!
I am  just some over-baked batter
Laced with sweetness like that matters  ...
Rich and dark with pecan crunchies,
Chewy and gooey.. got the  munchies?
Look...even I would pass me by
But that brandy glaze...mmmm oh  my!
<Rollin my eyes> That is such tripe
So please don't buy into  holiday hype!
I'm really no more than decorated brick
Could sink a ship..  now that's a trick!
I am the gift that gives and gives and gives
And I  know where EVERYONE lives!
So pay no mind to my molasses tears,
I'll be  around a few more years.
And when my recycling days are through
Just  remember what fruitcake did not do for  you!
