HAUTE CUISINE

 


FUSION VS ASSIMILATION


         food is fused

as in ginger
and lemon grass
used with
antipasto

or 
pumpkin seeds 
in
jasmin rice

         cultures are assimilated

as with the maori
and the inuit
or 
the abrahamic
and 
the pagan


some for better taste
or trade
some for ideas
and
action
irreplaceable


politics
power
location
taste 
and
marriage 
as in
enforced need
to please

appear
in ages millenial
discovered
or
rediscovered
to tease

PUBS INNS AND KHANS FOR TRAVELERS

 


MOTELS FOR CARAVANS

PUBLIC HOUSES FOR TRAVELERS


depending on

the number traveling

and wishing

to share

protection and a bed

brew or bath

possibly also borscht

if in Ukraine or Russia

but not 

at an Asian Khanate 

or a Chinese family dinner


some becoming sufi retreats

others

just watering holes

with water

for wudu and ghusi

left alone to thrive

by invaders

and jealous spouses 


till new barbarians

desiring

the silk

and the spices

and 

having no concept

of safety 

and sharing

in their rules and rituals and books

took over 

for civilization and modernity and greed

PARASOMNIA

 

SOMNAMBULISM 


fate of many a good person

decades of

sleep walking

including sexsomnia

may be also

extended

proprandial somnoloescence

long messimeri

or

vamakukshi


how does one make it to eighty two

with two children 

having survived life shaking events

a marriage

much gossip

and 

a whole lot of evil eyes

depleting energy

and stamina


if not for sleep

and

its recognition

with open eyes

and

an open mind

to be closed

at will

preparing

for the dark

CONVERGENCE

 


TRUTH ABOUT LOCI


all activity

and thought

and feeling

and behaviour

and

life 

have one focus

to make it 

to reach

to 

arrive at

this point

of time

and affairs


 to experience

the tapping of keys

the chiming

of the bells

the call 

to see 

and to think

of writing

of thinking

of truth and lies

and all horizons

short and long

which exist

under

the cloak of a rain of innocence

and the showers

of nescience

CAVES AND DUNGEONS

 



AUTHORIZED, PROMOTED OR RQUIRED



caves

and

dungeons

are not 

recommended

as habitation

for the anemophilous

neither

for the soul

who yearn

to be caried 

by currents

of air

soil 

or water

to 

undisclosed places

containing

a breath

or a sip

even

with no taste

MONKEY ON A TREE

 


BRANCHING TREES


support monkeys

and koalas

and snakes

not 

all female


not easy to tell

by visage

by word

by mien


too late 

if hole with stakes

guised 

on route

with fantasies

from fiction


with patterns for hunger

relate to

intermittent emotional fasting

unbeknownst

to victims


and observers

pure

served by deluded soothsayers

and

opinionated opinion leaders

who know not monkeys

nor branches

except

for a few

carved

walking sticks

canes

for the self abused
