INTO THE CAULDRON

Into the cauldron,
Feeling well drained.
Found in the pot,
My addled old brain.

Stirring well within that pot,
Was every thought,
I thought I had ever got.
A pinch of grated teeth,
To make sure it tastes just right.

A scraping of witch's broom,
To stop the ones tastings it.
From ever taking flight.
Many a lashing from,
My wife's tongue
To give it extra bite.

Then a little pepper,
And a little salt.
Oh no I've ruined it,
By putting in
To much thought.
