Pots clang and lids clatter;
steam powered alchemy
flavours the air.
tomato, cilantro onion
and pepper Notelvis
conducting the choir of scents,
measures, with careful abandon,
ingredients for the spell.
garlic, rosemary, lemon and thyme
Trump of doom rattles
from the egg-timer:
the oven inferno disgorges heaven
onto a plate.

Kamala.
