Cake Or Pie

Once, someone posed a question And it made me want to cry "If you had to choose," she said "Which one - cake or pie?" I didn't want to answer I mean, why would she even pry? It's the deepest question out there Philosopher's testify It really made my head hurt I took a pill, I won't deny That question bounced on through my brain "Which one - cake or pie?" Should I go back to college? Though that thought just makes me sigh I could become an expert on it Get into the minutiae I could travel the world over Find the answer by-and-by It could be in the Dead Sea Scrolls Or in a cave in old Mumbai How deep is that secret buried? Should I give up, or should I try? Is the truth just out there waiting? Would it leave us high and dry? Should I hire a detective? A spook or private eye? Are there agents working on it? CIA or FBI? Or was she trying to trick me Trying to trap me in a lie? Decades on, I still don't know Which one - cake or pie
