"The Early Years"

The Recipe of Me (Listen to the poem in RealAudio G2)

to the oatmeal of the disinherited
add paw of Zion
eye of eagle
lure an albino rabbit
sprinkle with edelweiss tears
star dust
and autumn maple

curse with whiskey and beer
thicken with egg yolk and hasty pudding

spice with ancient lores
salt with blooded prairie dust

stir with Berserker swords
simmer slowly over Sanskrit's swastika
time with Switzerland's watch
guard with the Great Dane

leprechaun knows his pot
when he sees it
