Kitchen Gadgets
The gadgets
that create epicurean wonders are vast and plenty. When
not completing tasks, these tools, depending on novelty,
hang by the wall, sit on the shelf, or clutter drawer space.
If not purchased outright, gadgets are traded, borrowed,
are given as gifts, and sometimes surreptitiously stolen.
What dismay when the inevitable need for replacement occurs
because the broken gadget is irreparable and a replacement,
not even a replica,
is available. Substitution is no consolation.
Such glorification is explicative of the how
effect: the art as craft in design imparting erudition;
the expressed talent in cookery; rumination gained.

Kitchen Gadgetry
Kitchen gadgets are mechanisms for
Casting agrarian spells and industrial hocus.
Hand-crank or push-button,
Food-processing is a mishmash
Of low/high technique--
Information stored in a
Mental model manual--
Intellectual properties
For use with
A cauldron or a crock-pot
For use with
A splintered wooden spoon or
A thermometric pitchfork.
Such are archaic and arcane tools used
To pool and plate sustenant resources.
