Keeping The Peace

Pots and covers, cutting boards
and dishes, utensils, bamboo
stirring spoons and paring knives,
cleavers and peelers litter every
conceivable space; briefly used
and discarded, soon lost in the
detritus of frenzied preparation.

Observe, ye females, and quail
with the futile despair of hopeless
envy! When all is done and
fragrantly dispensed, partake and
gush admiration of the zest and
skill that surpassed expectations.

Remain genuinely compatible to
agree to the sublime superiority
of the effort entailed culminating
in a meal of exquisite execution
and prepare, post-prandially, to
wipe up spilled excess and to
clean up that incredible morass.
