Roasted Aardvark and the brains
of a fermented Gnu
Are the main ingredients
of Aardvark Stew?
Adding some eyes from . . . . . . .Tibetan Goats
And fresh Arctic Terns
having first . . . . . cut their throats
And the acid from the
battery of an old Submarine
And fluff scraped from
the base of something very unclean
And the tail of a Lizard
And the feet of a Horse
And fresh mint licked just
the once then chopped up rough and quite course
And seeds removed from the
intestines of Mice
And fresh mountain snow
that has boiled once and then twice
All stirred together
And then left to stand
Adding one last ingredient
The thumb
from an old
Mummified Hand.
Then serve with mash
potato and fresh beans
Something new for the family, and ideal for Sunday Lunch…..
Your poetry flows so well, I love the rhymes! And, of course, the content.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Miss Laura. The A to Z for real starts rather simply and modestly but after a few days it will all start to make sense...... Until then I will do the odd little poem to amuse folk a bit (sort of) . . . . . . . OK they are not amused
DeleteHANG ON I have reason to believe someone has already said that about my poems. although it was a long time ago. . . . . .
I have a funny mashed potato story from yesterday.
ReplyDeleteI am rather partial to a bit of mash potato as long as it has plenty of butter, a little cream and salt and pepper (no too much salt, it is not good for you) . . . . .
DeleteWill you be doing poems such as this for the A-Z?
ReplyDeleteIndeed I will Sir Addman, although a little shorter, but for a reason which will become clear as the alphabet progresses
DeleteMore a case of
You can hide
In a tree
To escape the clutches
Of the Zombie
The END
Clever!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely should not have read this while I was eating my lunch, but I liked it a lot.
I am glad you liked it, but I have to admit I have never eaten it myself, I must try . . . . although Aardvark is hard to find in the supermarkets of Britain.
DeleteMy favorite part was when you rhymed AHAAHAHAAHA
ReplyDeletewith hahahahahaha.
...and the mummy hand.
I try to take time
DeleteTo make it rhyme
But sometimes it all goes wrong
And turns to
Slime.
AHAAHAHAAHA
Note to self: Never eat at Rob's house if invited.
