Cuisine Chez Moi

Cuisine Chez Moi – A Culinary Critique

a critical menu
battered salmon steaks
served on china white
juices run off
then mayonnaised
glorified and garnished
presented au gratin
with whipped creamed mash
and one fat lonely
half spliced
sprog from brussels

truly a dreamed of dish
kindly meant
subliminally envisaged
in hypnagogic moments
yet met with silence
unpopular
yet savagely devoured
by a famished family
now fed
now fulfilled
my culinary skills
uncommented
unquestioned
just silently derided
never to be repeated
by popular
though unvoiced request
