The Ballad of a Teenage Cupcake (Act 4)

Acting is the expression
of a neurotic
impulse...

It's a bum's life.

Quitting acting,
that's the sign of
maturity.

The Ballad of a Teenage Cupcake (Act 3)

Whoever you are,
I have always depended upon

the cupcakeness
of strangers.

The Ballad of a Teenage Cupcake (Act 2)

A cupcake is still a cake.
Cups are the new baking pans.

Only sprinkle my left side;
the left side is my good side.

The Ballad of a Teenage Cupcake (Act 1)

Cupcakes are delicious.
Cupcakes are alone.

Such is their blessing,
& such is their curse.

Vegemite King Is Dead, Long Live Nutella King

TORONTO, ON -- Robot Kissing Booth (RKB) is proud to announce that as of 12pm EST, Nutella will become the official almost-breakfast condiment of Ryan Bird's almost-mainstream poetry. After careful deliberation, our A-List panel of condimental gourmands would like to extend their heartfelt congratulations to the official runner-up, Marshmallow Fluff for making this such a closely contested race. Furthmore, RKB producers would like to thank the fans of this site for their almost-affordable text message votes, and although the contest is technically over, we encourage our loyal supporters to keep on voting; however, if they wish to stop voting, they should simply text the phrase "LAY IT ON THICK" to 5565.
