Rendered and Tendered

Take a sampling of interest
Dice  slice  spice and wrap it
Slow warm  in an oven of love
Until firm with  a bubbly crust
Set out to cool in evening ranges
Carefully balanced 
Lest it deranges
Yearning and turning to lust
Flavor with arduous ferment and fear
Casting and sprinkling
All you hold dear
Then serve it forever
Bright clean and clear
On a platter of  innocent trust
