Marika thinks there is a devil
so she puts in more garlic
even more garlic-
She thinks there is a demon
so chops-up hard-boiled egg
and tosses it in
Fears there is another
so a little more paprika
than usual a pinch of
the deep red crushed pepper
from Aunt Lavinia

Her mother says anchovies
where there would be
sardines-"And don't adjust
the salt"

Marina never has
good advice "Just ask him"
'Just ask him!'
Tries unripe tomatoes
those salty Greek olives
and lemon grass

"No more basil"
says mother-
"Instead, crushed
sunflower seeds
with chopped parsley
used for cover"
