    On Eating a Scotch Egg
    Thou wert not fashioned by human hand
    O Orb of Meaty Wonder whose fiery
    Sunset hues betray thy celestial origin
    Thou Sphaere which hath plungèd from the
    Realm of Jove Himself to our sublunary plane;
    Th'encrusting rough crumb contrasteth with
    The smoothe interior as doth the Cocoa-nut
    Conceal her milky bounty 'neath the vile coir;
    Or the Pastye of Corn-walle enfold its
    Toothsome treasure in a rugged carapayse
    Thy fleshy ramparts surrender to the dental foe
    Revealing thy tender myst'ries to the eater's gaze
    An egge of hen artfullye concealed in a womb of pork
    No finger food this for hungry Musulman or Jew
    Thou cunning Caledonian culinary conundrum !!
    Certain bolde gentlemen of that Boreal nation
    Do not venture forth without a sporrane
    That is to say a satchell of badgere-skyn
    In which are concealed a brace of this delicacie
    As it were a second payre of stoones
    For th'amayzement of the ladyes
    And the annoyance of the Sassenackes

    Tried to rep but looks like I've repped you recently, clearly I've appreciated your poetic skills on more than one occasion.

    Tried to to rep you, but I'm all out for the day - already, I know (It's embarrassing).

    Just know that I am forever humbled by your poetic skills.

    Can I just say, I love Scotch Eggs.

    Like more than I love people. Way more than I like people.... I could easily kill people to get my hands on two scotch eggs right now.
