Grandma made plantain fu-fu
On the fire hearth.
A big iron skillet of hot coconut oil.
Her hands were gnarled and knobby. But.
Oh they knew the way.

Mashed green bananas and special. Salt season.
Dropped lightly . In fried to gold.

Out and rolled with a green glass bottle then.
Deep fry again.

Hot plantain fu-fu.
In coconut oil.
Hello Africa.
Kenya.
Nigeria.

Sweet and nice.
