NaPoWriMo 16 ~ Recipe

I'm not sure what I think of this piece. A friend asked for this recipe, and I decided to try writing it as a poem. Portions aside, you get the picture.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Casserole for Kara

set aside lightly boiled
cubed potatoes and
crumble pork sausage
into cast iron skillet
grease glass casserole
with pork fatted fingers

chop onions
tyrannizing eyes into
medium high translucence
press garlic,
sizzle and stir until
odor opens nostrils

crack eggs into casserole
scramble slow with
heavy whipping cream
shred in Monterey jack
and sharp cheddar
mix it all together
salt and pepper it up

350 degrees and
45 minutes later
butter sourdough toast
and consume
