"You Get To Eat the Cookies I Decorated" — Spoken Word Poem/Performance By a Two-Year-Old

By Sophie, With Real-Time Transcription By Me

I got a cookie for you
and you can eat it
cause…
I have some cookies
for myself
one for you and one for me
two
a really big one
and I eat it
and…
[hunchback crane dance*]
I ate some cookies.
I got to get some cookies and
decorate ‘em.

*Performance element described as acurately as possible

(Thanks to Todd, Angie, Brennan and Zion Fadel for making the evening of Christmas cookie decorating that inspired this poem possible.)
