Genuflect to the Garlic
A Sensational Poem

https://www.tastemade.com/recipes/spaghetti-aglio-e-olio
Garlic is the only author among vegetables--listen to its fresh pages turning
Your nose is studying the history of guileless, peasant genius
Olive oil is a shining, smooth challenge to atheism: taste it
Watch the parmesan make notes and add parsley punctuation
Do you feel tradition making the present more bearable for your mouth?
