My Own Recipe

I stir and stir this pot of stew.
It mustn’t scorch! That wouldn’t do!
With eye of newt, and frog tongue, too;
A pinch of thyme, some pond scum goo;
Will all make this a tasty brew!
I’ll simply add a thing or two!

Some worm surprise or rotten gnu
Would add flavor to my foul roux!
Perhaps a snail or black bamboo!
In retrospect, or hitherto,
Maybe I’ll add some kangaroo.

I just can’t wait until it’s through
What a delight! Oh yes, it’s true!
If you should search to Timbuktu
I’m sure that no one can outdo
My lovely pot of witches brew!
