Like toast without butter was the saltless bowl of curry This indeed caused the unhappy cook to worry "What shall I tell 'master', the only member of the jury? For nothing but utter distaste the bowl does carry" As reader, by now, you'd think there's the solution Of simply adding salt to the saltless infusion But please just wait before you arrive at conclusions And let me guide you through the motions leading to the cook's final resolution Had the cook some salt, this tale would have met it's end as soon as it begun But given that that isn't the case, in our hands we have a miserable man Who, though down-trodden, still believed in the strength of a simple "I can" So off he went in search of salt, his journey 'has' just begun...

... the saltless curry....
Like toast without butter was the saltless bowl of curry This indeed caused the unhappy cook to worry "What shall I tell 'master', the only member of the jury? For nothing but utter distaste the bowl does carry" As reader, by now, you'd think there's the solution Of simply adding salt to the saltless infusion But please just wait before you arrive at conclusions And let me guide you through the motions leading to the cook's final resolution Had the cook some salt, this tale would have met it's end as soon as it begun But given that that isn't the case, in our hands we have a miserable man Who, though down-trodden, still believed in the strength of a simple "I can" So off he went in search of salt, his journey 'has' just begun...
