Firstly a dash of hyperbole,
then a smidgen of self-deprecating wit
followed by a dollop of philosophical insight
a portion of of regret,
a suggestion of humour
a few slivers of empathy,
a nod to current events
covered in layers of allegory
leavened with plentiful allusions
drizzled with heartfelt emotion,
then serve
either cold or hot
this masterpiece de jour,
bon appetit!
A master chef ‘s interesting and witty recipe !
