He who eats his leek
does not let this leak.

Vegetables now ready
Peeled and so fresh
It's potato and Welsh leek
Mm, stepping stone soup
Delicious in taste
Expressive
Wow!...

On Sundays, Welsh wives go to chapel
Each one of them ready to grappel
Not for an hymn book
Nor Minister's look
They just want a bite of Eve's apple!...

garlic
fine white win

butternut
squash
quince and mince

leek
scallops
clotted cream

turkey stuffed
pastry puffed
chives give hives

people gaseous
pissed 
nauseous

give me your aorta ~ and in exchange i will give you a nice pulse

said the kidney bean to a cabbage heart ~ as it openly convulsed

but the black eyed peas protested violently ~ acting with impulse

of course i needed a leek pretty bad ~ and suddenly felt repulsed...

Rippling
Appearance
Sinuous and
Sleek

Scales
Nestle
As tongue flicks
Keen to taste the
Earth

"Peek-a-boo," Chucky said to me
Seek and hide, we played
Meek was I when I hid
Leek I smelled as Chucky swayed.

Agile Chucky prowled inside the house
Fragile was I when I shrugged
Tactile is he whenever he talks to me
Ductile was the glass floors when Chucky got mad and thugged....

As the eagle glides through the air beautiful and free
the spirits are calling "We are Free, We are free."
The indians are dancing around the hot flaming fires of victory.

In memory of my Grandfather Rennie Dittmer
May he soar with the Eagles...

Roy went an extra mile last week
while traveling from Stoke to Leek
by high-speed rail (First-Class, off-peak).

In truth, a little more;

It was an extra sixty-three
he ended up in Oswestry;
decided to explore and see;

He’d never been before.

He saw the castle and the keep;
It is one way to travel cheap;
to board a train then fall asleep;

(the secret’s not to snore)....

Fish madam?
Price Edwards a Welsh man taught me how to poach eggs fish and rabbits
The recipe for  poached eggs is  universal
Poached perch is.....Take fillets and cheeks saute in butter with a dash of mead
Poached trout........Wrap in aluminum foil with herbs.. throw in small fire
Poached rabbit.....Debone saute in olive oiland butter...add mushrooms and  leek

Poached venison I’ve never tried...

we need to eat veggies
cruciferous cabbage cauliflower
brocoli brussel sprouts
collards kale kohlrabi
cancer away
we need to excrete then
anger wrath hatred
jealousy judgement gossip
cancer away
we need to eat 
beet tomato tomatillo
leek garlic onion guard
bitter and artichoke lettuce
let us excrete purge
accumulation possession greed
segregation fornication discrImination
life is beautiful...

Daffodils grow out the back of my head.
I wish they were purple tulips instead.
My job pays well, but I don’t make as much as Leek.
I lament this fact, ruining part of my week.
My family is good, but Kim’s seems better.
I spend my life grousing, jealous of my sister’s sweater.
Crazy I know, and yet here I sit, irritated more than a little bit.
That my brother’s having a better life. This griping I have to quit!...

Feet upon the ground 
Yet my body flows below me
Drink deep like the sea
Merciful rain, is always a part of thee

Hands touched by fate
Soul of thy feet, leek together with its mate
David slayed Goliath
Down with the devil, is what it takes

Died with thy enemy and kept it how it was meant to be
Yet scars of those tomorrow's left invisible scars of thee
Scars..oh I have plenty
Yet dead??
Twas meant
And only sustained thee...
