3233. TWO BLACK CARDS TO GO

TWO BLACK CARDS TO GO
(Kingdom of Food)
Running backwards with a Julia Child
logic : to speak, then : pinch, sprinkle,
douse, spread - regale morfosto forester
poise. The grace of flour, the skill of
skillet. The sizzle and wash of
both sound and food.
-
As luck would have it, the fluke
of a latter logic had soaked up
all the sauces. We stood around
disentangled and yet disparaged
by one and by all.
-
No one has since come calling.
The garlic still roasts, as cloven-hoof
Harry himself boasts of his bastings.
Bring more vinegars and oils. And,
then - 'midst all this oveny heat -
the lights, and only the lights at all,
go out in our new Kingdom of Food.
