Symposia
You're invited to a SYMPOSIA!
Expand your waist and expand your mind,
Study the stars while you're wined-and-dined,
A food and cosmic ambrosia!
Multiple telescopes - multiple cooks,
The best astronomers and cuisines,
Savory menus and astral scenes,
Deep-table banquets and deep-space looks!
What could go better with gourmet food,
Than gawking and talking of the stars -
Frying while eyeing features on Mars,
Stomach AND mind in a sated mood?
Forums on both with experts galore -
Physicists, chefs, and pundits to query,
Seasoning, reasoning, quantum theory,
Workshops on stargazing, glazing and more!
Get your seat now, and please don't be late!
You won't want to miss the cosmic food fun -
Of all the conventions, this is the one,
WhatEVER you love, on the sky ... or your plate!
