Best Boil Poems

transformed infatuation into hope,
while nights of Spring, beneath the stars divine,
inspired two vernal lovers to elope.
  When fervor waned and solstice peaked the sky,
those days were singed and weathered in the broil,
their days of Spring soon...

The leaves were turning red and gold;
And frost was in the air.
When they rounded up the Acadians,
From Miquelon and Saint Pierre.

It was a time for groaning;
A cry from Cajun lips.
When they rounded up those Frenchmen;
And loaded them on ships.

So they came to "Louisiane;"
A strange and...

Suck the juices from within.
Pinch the tail and eat.

Baby red potatoes peeled
Fresh corn from the field
With pink shallots in the pot
Sausages add zing
Then the shrimps go in
Seasoning
Yum

Salt a mess of fresh blue crabs
Steamed in a beer broth,
with onions and Old Bay spice. 
Mix vinegar with
Worcestershire sauce.
Pick, dip, eat.
Treat!


note: Have plenty of cold beer and paper towels on hand!

You’re at least a well wisher, so I thought
b’cos of you, I won’t be what I’m not
you’re the grand gangster of your backyard, so what!
your hate is impressively dynamic 
the flames- to others you want to transport
the fuel of anger inside of you is quite...

He is all alone ...can't sit at 
The computer or sit to talk

For he would have to lie down
In the back seat in the...

A COUNTRY BOIL

Get some fresh swamp cabbage,
And get yerself some ham,
Get yerself some snap peas,
And the biggest pot on hand.

Boil it up together,
Over a nice slow fire,
Until it's all real tender,
Then take it from the pyre.

Don't forget the seasonings,
Just salt and pepper's fine,
And serve it...

sheeps in my dream
