Flour, water, sugar
A bit of Marmite to help
The starter along
Days of monitoring
Certain the yeast was dead
But finally, a loaf
Almost twenty-four hours in the making
Not counting the eight days
Of daily feeding
To keep the starter alive
And as I slather butter on
A slice
Bite into it
Get used to how sour it is
- they really meant is when they called it sourdough -
I wonder if I'd ever have made
Such an effort for you
With us
