Meat

Anchored by its feet hangs the carcass Butcher removes brisket and strings it Chuck steak diced for stews and pies Dark well matured silverside rests Entrails give the dogs a royal feast Flank minced for spaghetti bolognese Gullet chopped into stock pot simmers Hanging meat swings as the butcher works Icy still from the blast chiller Juicy steaks thickly cut are parcelled up Kebabs skewered, placed on display Loin of beef neatly lined up Minced steak patties for burgers Neck used in both stock pot and stew Offal set aside for pate and pies Perfectly roasted beef ready to carve Quick flash fry of rib eye seals in juices Rump not too trimmed dribbles on grill Sirloin anointed by a king sizzling Tongue gently braised in gravy or stock Utensils casting shadows on the wall Venison from red deer's makes tasty things Wing rib rubbed with hot spices waits Xhosa cattle graze in pastures green Yellowed meats set aside for soup Zibeline hides scrapped and cured, nailed up 8/27/2015 contest Any Poem written in August
