Marinated olives. How are Mo a role model for poems?

Some poems could benefit greatly from brining. Curing.

In the meantime, here's a poem-friendly culinary activity:

jar of good green olives (with pits)
lemon zest & a squeeze of juice
2 bay leaves
3-4 slices of garlic
fresh lemon thyme -- a few sprigs
olive oil
MIX

to which can be added:
chopped tomatoes
or almonds
or feta
or roasted onions
or carrots (raw or roasted)
MIX (Serve as tapas or on top of leaf lettuce, making what might loosely be called, a salad)

    Songs a'plenty in the square
    A vast and cozy plain
    The crowd's a'flurry in the dark
    In the dark without the rain

    In the dark without the rain one time
    My friend and I did walk
    She did not put her hand in mine
    She did not want to talk

    My friend and I did walk
    the musty ruins of the town
    We saw the boats and empty bins
    We threw our silver down
