Twaddle, twaddle, poke and paddle,
tell me what you see,
stirring, arms taut ‘round that big pot
you mimic, so, with glee.
Oh, I added cumin — but that’s just human –
or perhaps I like the kick.
To our sweet and savory meat?
Perhaps I should spices pick.
Don’t worry now, for you’ll see how
you won’t tear up at taste.
Though I can’t deny I’ve never tried
this partic’lar baste.

So sat they down, with smile and frown,
Sans restaurant or waiter.
And Cook agreed with Taster, indeed
She’d use a recipe later.
