Europa Poets' Gazette No. 70, February 2010

Sausage Rolls
Take the pastry from the fridge
Let it stand and melt away.
Peel away the purple paper
Wash with beaten egg.
In a bowl put sausage meat
Onions and breadcrumbs, add
Lots of spices and an egg,
With hands, squish all around.
Lay a tube of sloppy sludge
Along the pastry spread
Roll up and cut in even bits
Stab with a fork and bake.
After 30 minutes’ moderate heat,
Golden brown on top,
Cool on a pretty tea towel
And eat with tomato sauce.
