Trotters: a Very Dangerous Delicacy

Trotters: A Very Dangerous Delicacy! Trotters and knuckle bones Is a rare meal, real treat. Cordon Bleau of repute Will moan of cooking time- Simmering that last eternity, And the massive power bill That hits below the belt! But popular myth attached To the slimy delicacy With soup thick and slippery And salty: Aphrodisiac. But, one thing for sure; Once you kiss your girlfriend Prepare for the sweet woe Of sleeping away from home, With slimy soup on your lips To her, you’ll stick forever! JM 19th Nov’ 2013

Hahaha. Where I come from we mix the trotters (walkaways) with tripe. Your lips can remain glued for quite a while. I bet you'd like to remain stuck to her lips, you sneak. Nice poem, shamwari. Licia ;-)
