Shellfish Lover Blues

A man on the toilet. the world's oldest cliche.

From the first built outhouse to a hotel's bidet.

The time he spends thinking will likely feel endless.

To those outside waiting with shouts so relentless.

Perhaps their anger would be better served.

Aimed at the overambitious chef who had the nerve.

To test the limits of his culinary prowess.

By mixing in dairy with the seafood and shallots.
