Best Sauce Poems

A full total solar eclipse occurred on July 2, 2019,
In only Chile and Argentina.
I was informed about it and told my scoffing, daughter dear:
"There is something destructive that will result from this, I fear. "

Surely, enough it did, in the Mojave Desert on July 4, 2019
with such...

Celestial sauce for all.
    Clementine, port and fruit, 
      Churn with sugar so sweet.
        Condiment for turkey, 
           caramelize your...

You tantalize senses
Breaking down defenses

You sting to attention
Breaking all convention 

Caution this spice of life
She will not make a wife...

lazy electrons
select correctly
for a hard working dawn
my schematics are smothered
in positive provocative ions
can't wait to see you
in a nice classy black thong

psychoactive therapeutics
cycle through sedative terror optics
I bask in the error of righteous lunatics
monday night slippery pistol grips
doing it right, no hype
sex toys
bondage tape
frozen grapes...

Soy sauce drains 
Into the white, clustered rice
Stepped on…
spills . . . 
Soy sauce taints
The whiteness of the grain
 It slips out of my hands
No use...no point in crying out in rage
Though I was starving, 
I'll just eat another thing and start on a new...

Criss-Cross Apple Sauce
One memory I thought I lost
Alphabets and one two threes
First grade and go mimis
Kiddie snacks and juice boxes
Cookies full of chocolate chips 
Playing kitchen and building blocks
Stolen crayons in my socks
Eating glue off snowmen in class
Teacher yelling we're laughing
Time-Outs and secret codes
Pee pee...

Cocaine
Apple sauce
In my vein
Can't get across
I do it every day
Every night
I can't pay
Now I'm about to fight
I'm trying to get some from the store
I even smoked some off the floor
Chicken fingers and roast beef
Salads and a roasted leaf
Drugs and apples are the best
Because of it...

What's happening these days, I'm at a loss
The girlies love exposing, their bodies they toss
All scrumptious dishes
Their bodies delicious
I'm a dirty old man whose been into the sauce...

A friend once asked, “What is Love?”

And one replied Love is like an exquisite red rose flower                            ...

Giggly stuff keeps flowing, can't turn it off
Perhaps I've been to much long at the trough
How's bout a lovey one
Bout the use of tongues
Now there I go, must stay away from the sauce

Gargle, glop, burble and glug, 
The sauce in the bottle was glued.
It oozed so slow, not wanting to leave,
To cover all of my food.

A thump and a thud with a thwack on its base 
Didn’t convince it to ooze any faster.
I guess it really didn’t...

In the eighteenth century, it made its first scene.
This is one of five main sauces in haute cuisine.
Culinary experts give credit to France,
although it may have come from the Netherlands by chance.

Just take some clarified butter, egg yolk, and lemon juice.
These simple ingredients can be...

I run
I scream
I cry
I release
I fall
I crawl
I heave

You win....

Lisa's vodka voice
calls from outside,
later than late, when
the stars have shut down 
for the night, refusing 
boozer-sight that prevents 
one from tripping.

Screech owl's search light,
a Full-Sturgeon moon,
is still much too dark, if inebriated
to distinguish which cement walls 
are most likely to attack.

Two eves past, her...

Sambal Bawang
air liurku, diamlah.
Nasi mari datanglah dengan hangat
Air liurku, tunggulah
Tempe digoreng hampir gosong
Nasiku buat penuh dalam piring ditanak lunak
Kemudian ,
Inilah sambel bawang,
3 cabe rawit
Secuil bawang putih.
Sedikit gula merah dan asam jawa ?
		Itu jika kamu suka
Digerus , jangan lupa garam
Secukupnya
Teteskan setetea minya sayur bekas tempe
Yang berjelaga
Air...
