A Crook of a Cook

After a momentary look And a longer one I took At the size of her ordered wood, While I, still stood, I surrounded that our cook Is some sure crook, Her motives a completely readable book, Her inner spirit reached with my hook… And in her spirit saw I not a spook But upon what I stumbled thrice shook: I’d swear at a shrine A crook of a cook.
