How Do I BBQ
Ninety five degrees
standing poolside
on the wooden patio
in the backyard
orange Androsia print apron
hugging my torso
propane grill
propelling fumes
hot as a steamroom
at a suana
Tendered rib eyed
and porterhouse steaks
seasoned in high salt
like abstract paintings
brushed in A1 sauce
and finally
a side of
friench fried potatoes
spruced in liquid tomatoes
from the essence of my garden
served to my darling party guests
with a golden heart of

The Australian
Ben is Australian, a BBQ king,
Burning and scorching meat is just his thing.
He came from Aus some years ago, and met his own lovely English rose.
He still has an accent, but has learnt to call his friends mate, instead of just cobber,
He loves fly fishing because you carry less clobber.
Ben's prefect day would be to

Savory Seduction
rub my butt with spices
baste my breasts with olive oil
slather my wings and things with sauce
butter my thighs, slow broil
ah, the savory delights of a summer BBQ!

I Love Bbq
Where I come from
there are two
kinds of BBQ
so it’s your choice
for an authentic meal
Sweet and tangy
Vinegar that’s sharp
believe me
you can tell them
both apart
A giant glass
of the sweetest iced tea
ever made
Coleslaw by the bucketful
baked beans to tantalize
hope your stomach
is bigger than your eyes
Cornbread by the panful
smeared with butter
that will

My Garden BBQ Summer Menu
Friends have an open invitation, dusky sky, soft rock music~
It’s all part of the experience of barbecuing—I Am Anaya
Rustic charred mesquite fired up
Aromatic smoke
Sweet guavas, fish, steak, grilling
Blazed creamed artichoke
Decadent pastry
Black Velvet
Lime

Fire Up the Bbq
Patriotism and Holidays seem to go hand-in-hand
Fire up the BBQ; strike up the brass band
Picnics down by the lakeside; it's all mighty grand
Though I'd rather be known for my love of this land

4th of July Bbq
Too many kabobs
to skewer
plus bone-dry ribs.
Me? I’ll stay
with pink lemonade
and watch
the turbid sky
and watch
the stars reload
And so study
serious stockades a
stick up their collective

Bbq Outback
Based on my consulting this year’s almanac
June 30th being the best possible day for a BBQ out back
I sent out invitations to everyone, I didn’t hold back
There was the lumberjack, the nymphomaniac
The humpback, the hunchback and the hypochondriac
The kleptomaniac, the hemophiliac and the insomniac
No reason to leave out the egomaniac and

Brimstone Bbq
Take a number and pick a seat
How are you enjoying the heat
Welcome to the kitchen of hell
You will be here for a spell
Rotten meat and burning flesh
Hope you don't mind the smell
Smell of sulphur masks the fumes
Morbid screaming from the rooms
If you are abrade to die
Look around and you nay realize
We are all already

The Annual Birthday Bbq Bash 2010
Don’t the years go quick?
It’s another birthday BBQ
It’s that time of year again
When acquaintance is renewed
When family and friends
Come affably together
To eat a hearty meal outdoors
And sod the English weather
The beer and wine is chilled
The buffet has been prepared
The BBQ is well alight
No planning has been spared
So everything is set fair
Most of the guests are

The Last Bbq
I've been to the last family BBQ
The family is no more
Those still alive
Dispersed from shore to shore
No more Thanksgivings,
Which I always hosted
The over-assortment of goodies
Of which I always boasted
Christmas in the mountains
I'm like a bear in hibernation,
Only, saddly awake,
My heart does quake
Photo albums,
Videos,
All I have left of life,
Better than naught, I suppose,
Must last me till
