THE DEVIL OF A COOK<br />

I've never cooked a crocodile,<br />

I'm not partial to boiled bear,<br />

I've never fried a fox-cub<br />

(Think of all that fur).<br />

I've never whisked a weasel<br />

Or mashed a mongoose,<br />

I've never poached a pelican<br />

In the bladder of a moose.<br />

I've never sautéd snakes<br />

Or guzzled grilled gazelle,<br />

I've never tried to toast<br />

A tortoise in its shell.<br />

Liquidizing lizards<br />

And microwaving mice<br />

Might be stylish cooking<br />

But they don't taste very nice.<br />

Or mincing death's-head moths<br />

Does nothing for my tastebuds.<br />

(I can't stand insect broths.)<br />
