Notes About The Poem

Nine Herbs and Spices

Here at our Cafe'
We serve the best brains in the City
We only pick the freshest 
The pink, the plump and pretty
We like our brains real lean
It's the healthy way to eat
So we trim off all the fat
And we cut-out all the meat
But Our recipe's a secret
You mustn't tell a soul
We use a lot of fruit
And of course veg-e-ta-bles

Then we, Chop, slice and puree
Filet, fry and boil
Dip, roll, then saute
Season, salt and oil

Cut, mince and marinate
Stuff, simmer, stew and baste
Freeze, and refrigerate
Then add more salt to taste

Bake, broil, and then roast
Steam, stir with ladle
Sear, brown, braze and toast
Then serve it to your table
