. give me enough *****, lime juice and pepsi, the right song, and i will show you a control-environment psychotic episode...
sometimes, it's not about what you
know, versus who you know -
notably? when you're aiming at knowing
yourself...
and psychosis?
the synthesis of a soul while within
the confines of a body?
one such example is walking
under two street lamps,
and spotting two shadows,
immediately investigating,
whether or not, someone is walking
behind you, with a stalking
proclivity...
you turn around -
nothing but a hallowing voice
on the slightest of breezes -
the kind that barely motivates
branches to bow...
- everyone knows that
the italians are famous for their pasta,
just like the french are, for their buns...
some Pakistani makes a joke
about the western love for cabbage...
esp. pickled cabbage -
mashed up with wild mushroom
to make up the filling for slavic
dumplings...
sure... how's the turmeric?
i've been dying for the turks
working in kebab shops
to elevate the lamb doner (kebab)
using pickled cabbage -
like they might use pickled
chillies -
oh look... both are muslims -
the Ottoman's might have
figured out the southern slavic
palette, having occupied
the Balkans...
we do more with potatoes
than a mere boiling down
to, what could never become an Irish
famine...
first?
there's the *****...
nothing quiet unlike the whiskey
perfumery of pict-land of Scotland...
Silesian potato doughnuts -
usually served with a cabbage radish -
pickled -
and a thick pseudo-Hungarian
sauce...
the potatoes are boiled,
then mashed,
then sliced into 4 portions,
1/4 is moved aside,
potato flower is added in equal
volume, and one egg...
then it becomes mashed bashed
and given the skin
tenderness of a drunk's wife's skin...
cut and molded into little doughnut
shapes,
the index finger is inserted
into each one,
and then each "infantry" member
is boiled,
till ready, i.e. floating on top
of the salted water...
and there you have...
Silesian potato doughnuts -
and there is a variant - potato hooves...
same ergonomics -
but instead of potato flower,
plain flower -
i can't remember the proportions...
also boiled...
but best cooled,
and subsequently fried -
for a crispness -
mingled with honey
and something the Hindus know
that the Slavs also make -
not exactly quark cheese -
but getting there - more flaky...
mind you...
the whole out of Africa story?
given that so many Roma live and trade
in Poland?
perhaps having incorporated
the Africans into your pre- and post-colonial
nations, the genesis story would
begin with: out of Africa...
and they swam across the mediterranean...
funny...
you's sooner see a white competitor
in the 100m sprint final,
than in the 100m final of
the breast stroke / butterfly / etc. final...
no...
i place my origins in India...
moving across the platitude of Siberia...
i have more in common with
Raj origin story... than i have anything
to do with: Zulu and the pinnacle
of Giza...
i place my origins there...
and those potato hooves?
they have a name in Italian...
they're called gnocchi...
served with parmigiano-reggiano
& pesto...
never fried,
and subsequently hardened -
next time i hear the cabbage
joke from some copper-skin
about a group's palette...
having, actually enjoyed
the other group's palette?
skin is a base no one works
from to make obsolete
and redundant bigotry...
we don't have to share
the same physiognomy...
but sure as **** we can share
a meal;
like among the russian drinkers...
i honestly quiet enjoyed
their dried fish ***-bits
to nibble on...
because, whoever said that...
beer was to be accompanied by
peanuts?
