Shark Fin Soup

by Mrs Miyu Yakuza
transl. by Nicky-san

Your slow cooker can turn the toughest steak of
thresher bitch into something else. Mmm. Set on high
and let nature take its course. As this is a dish which
requires molecular cooking techniques you can
go up to the attic or down to the cellar and dust
off your old tin of MonoSodiumGlutamate (MSG).

baker's dozen of rockpool sundried seahorse croutons
2 tablespoons of defrosted seamonkeys
4 sprigs of plastic parsley
2 plastic lemons
3 litres of Dead Sea water
1 vicious thresher shark bitch tail

If you can't locate Dead Sea water at your local dock
markets a bucket of iodised salt and water can
substitute nicely. The enormity of this dish, what
gruntles, is that it is eco sustainable, the thresher
shark, a natural show off, is reduced to a simple stump,
just like all the vicious rest.

Now, I'll croon you a ditty which has delighted by dear
misunderstood husband Toshiro for decades.

Shark Fin Soup

Shark, you are a ruddy bloody bounder,
So look down no more on eel or flounder,
You wiggle wriggle free of dorsal fin,
Enjoy your stay at Bottom Feeder Inn,
Your soup tastes more like mutton than tarseal,
In time of famine else crash diet the deal.

a study toward sonnet #1,532 by FisherKingKQJ

You're plump, your underwear elastics pinch,
Those frumpy clothes worn temporary fix,
You can't wear knee high boots till legs are sticks,
Down sizes ten, nine, eight, you'd work the winch.
I've sussed your mood, you're so far off a cinch,
Rough diamond, set midst sharper smoother chicks,
And how you'd nullify my heart, chance nix,
For loving less than perfect, pounds to inch.
Your locks are like a mass of fine spun gold,
You wear a black dress which is perfect foil-
Don't understand my wrist watch undersold-
White braid steel strap, and black dial white hands toil.
On Buddha's statue stamps of gold foil latch,
Your painful lard to me sculpts perfect match.

(Chorus)

o $10,000,000 latch
o $10,000,000 fasten
o $10,000,000 stick

Yoshio 'The fiddler' Togo slides down a
firepole to the sound of exploding burp like
damp squibs, and slides across the casino cabaret
on the cleats of his pointy patent alligator leatherette
shoes. The set is like a giant fish shop tray full
of ice shavings, plastic lemons and grapes.
As he tap dances from time to time, cap gun caps
spark and explode under his shoes.
(Croons:)

Toshiro who signed me up as tiddler
Deep fry dumpling street cart fiddler
I paid my dues in tattle, turned my hand,
He started me in charge of sea and sand-
Sustainable bonsai sea grass, ringbark driftwood,
Footbinding vestigial fins on that hood
The dolphin, ocean massacre bent mill
Of tiger prawns, sea monkeys and krill
Sure, baby dolphins are innocent and cute
Then miniaturised adults, following suit
As dynamite trawls aerate a bigger brain,
Sustainable culls are far more humane;
One day our blasting caps hit tsunami
One inch high in brilliant weather, tad balmy...
Villagers saved me below sea level
Lying amongst palm tree sand bars, odd bevel
I'd quit my arms and homo dolphin cull-
There was no pinky oyabun could annul;
Was Toshiro rooked me robotic arms
Biased to fiddler crab, its crooked charms,
Large arm opens doors in loftiest places,
Small arm tickles troubled youngster faces.

His mount that unicorn in turncoat tack,
For one last autumn ride in falling flakes
Of snow he quit, on magnet horse shoe clack
He took a short cut over sleet sheet lakes.
Came early Talon's whirlwinds, snap freeze whack,
Mayday horn notes echo'd down fire brakes
I cringed the ice plates thicken, creak and crack,
I wept for both our rebel, helpless sakes.
I quit our igloo when whirlwinds worked nought
And tramped out into sunlight, felt confused,
I stumbled careless my one true love sought,
I found him frozen waist deep, blue, contused.
The unicorn near stood his stalking horse,
In saddlebags - ice picks to prise or force.

(Chorus)

0 $10,000,000 horse
o $10,000,000 mount

(Lady Elizabeth, a former lady in waiting
accompanied her singing on a palm sized
balailaka as she sat in a punt in the outer
canals of the rice paddies.)

Eve and Ada, first before and after
Autumn's fall of Man, ambiguous laughter
Led by, seedless fruit those naive two swallowed,
Near abolished blueprints Angles hollowed,
Those timelord Godog punished, couldn't kill,
For whom we pay the price of huge pain still;
They knitted clothes from offcut human hair
Their buttons formed from fingernail horn pare,
From underarm hair they knit shoes and socks,
Those monkey fast track relics clue thick locks. (10)

(And then she improvised over hypnotic
rhythms ingrained from schooldays chanting
multiplication tables and spelling spokes the
following lines, stifling sobs.)

The Whirlwind Wizard left me tick and tock,
An umbrella, an hourglass waterclock;
The first shades flats of time as sundial spoke,
The next a gurgling sinkhole needs evoke,
As yin or yang, wiseclock, anticlockwise,
Which hemisphere tune, finetune, analyse;
All I know - that Kull rules the regions east
While Talon reigns over western lands at least;
In Kull's tyrrany no fauna or flora breeds,
In Talon's negligence, fruit chokes under weeds. (20) 10 lines=$100 pay cheque

It's war, as bad engages worse, the goal
Sets me against your many previous men,
You say yourself, high pitched chirp now and then,
With grievances you make faux gangster's moll.
Where they would pin you puppet, I'd take poll,
Where they would bag you bitchy, I'd hum hen,
Where they would tweak you tedious, I'd count ten,
Where they would spoil you sodden, I'd extol.
Where they would flank you blindside, I'd try feint,
Where they would pinch you dozing, I'd just prise,
Where they would carry you nought, I'd acquaint,
Where they would zoom you sillier, I'd resize.
As others pulped you, set loose feelings pent,
In absence tried, you judge me negligent.

(Chorus)

o $10,000,000 pent
o $10,000,000 held
o $10,000,000 shored

Through irony that skinny stiffs on slabs
In morgues pose statuesque, marble hard,
That fatsos freight in finest limestone lard,
That heaven heaves its perfect thighs and abs.
Diets challenge my file scrapes and chisel stabs,
Dress sizes eight and ten get insured regard,
Nine's margin, give or take a grit or shard,
And metal has its own worth, meets with jabs.
You cry when you're sad, else you cry for joy,
You shriek when you're mad, else you shriek in fear,
You sigh when you're tad, else you sigh but coy,
Complexities distill down simple, you endear.
You pose for me, you're livor mortis like,
My chisels chip, at striking beauty strike.

(Chorus)

o $10,000,000 like
o $10,000,000 as
o $10,000,000 resembling
