Eggsestential Poetry

A Course in Omelettics

With a sliced chord

of onion, purple and white,

removed in one movement

from an uprooted underground 

well layered minaret;

With translucent pages

knifed cleanly away

from the contoured spine

of red-pepper quires

that meet in bright binding;

With albumen and yoke

binding all to all 

in simple, in graceful,

communion,

I cook; I praise;

I delight in the glory of creating.
