Poem 45: Garlic Pizza

Let's make ourselves a pizza tonight

with turkey and cow and pig

we'll use roasted duck and chicken feet

and maybe even throw in

a bit of buffalo, a snippet of owl

and perhaps a gallon of crawdad tails

or maybe instead a salmon fillet

with lemon and garlic spread.

Let's make ourselves a pizza tonight

all stacked with vegetables;

a few sweet peppers, some green, some red

and a bit of zucchini all shredded.

Mushrooms stacked, piled high

parsley, celery, cilantro and squash

tomatoes, oregano, corn, beans and sauce.

Meat on the first layer, veggies on next

then cheese from Italy, Naples

then BEST: the GARLIC!
