Eat your heart out.


Listen to Her fruits:

so delicious
holistically nutritious
deliver me from evil
boxed cancer waves
icicles vicious

read the colors
flexible dexterous
lie if you want to hide
spicy if the work is hard
sweet if for breakfast

ripped from the ground
protective sheeting
under cover only fleeting
soft womb for your mouth

Red cautious reaction
poison weaving vine
worship the winding
devour inside out

Orange sweet preparation
ooey gooey decadent
keys open transcendent
unlock Pandora's Box

Yellow open pollination
sunshine reflex radiant
blinding pastel gradient
petals stiffly soft

Green fearless syndication
narrow sneaks shifty snakes
riding straight and strait
sliding steady - snap!

Blue mystery vacation
slippery chilled cottage stone
home away from home
drive on down the road

Purple temporal divination
bejeweled unspoken volume
other fruits noms de plume
devices unexplained


Be blessed burning
tongue, lips, nerves alight
revealing secrets
life's love garden
receive gift of second sight

Open up...

Curried Butternut Autumn Stew


As per Rachel's request, this is how I cooked the photo from "Griots Guide":

Step 1, Meat:
1/2 lb Chicken, FRESH from a butcher (none of that freezer shit)
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Cut in soup-size bites and sautee with hot curry powder in bottom of your stewpot.

Step 2, Produce:
(Find a farmer's market! Then, this whole meal will run you about $3.)
1 onion
1 lb butternut squash
1 granny smith apple
any other veggies that might be going bad (in my case, asparagus and broccoli)
CHOP all of these in soup-size pieces. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and put the hard squash in.

Step 3, Boil:
While waiting for the squash to get mushy in the oven (not too long!), pour 5-6 or so cups of water with 1 large chicken bouillon cube added (yay MSG!) and 3 tbs butter to the chicken in the pot. Add the rest of the veggies to your chicken and start the boil. Take out the squash, pull (or cut) the flesh away from its tough skin, and MASH with your hands! Add squash to stew and keep at a low bubble.

Step 4, Spices: 
As you're cooking, add as much of the following as you'd like (I like a lot): hot curry, chili powder, salt pepper, cumin, rosemary

Step 5, Wait:
I waited about 2-2.5 hours before I ate this, and it was great. However, if I make it in the future, I'm definitely letting it sit in a crockpot all day.

Step 6, Mouthgasm:
Enjoy!

Griots Guide





Light my path down Home,
Orange Autumn day;

crispy wispy Winds,
lead my Cares astray;

Summer, don't get in
Mother Nature's way;

October stews and witches brews,
it's time to come and Play.

A Po'm


Pomegranate lovestains
slave trains unchained
scarlet rains remain
sticky sweet survival

open field, tired, kneel
spirits yield, package sealed
skin peeled, jewel revealed
senses new with reason

sparkling kernels few
precious droplet dew
maybe just for two
egoism mastered
