Grass cake, grass pudding,
grass soup, grass dumplings in grass
sauce should fatten you.

Written on the theme of grass at Haiku Heights.
Alludes to the quote ‘Let them eat cake’ misattributed to Marie Antoinette, queen of France, beheaded in 1793, and a satirical film about the Ceausescu regime of Romania, in which the dictator’s wife recommended grass as a solution for the starving Romanians.

Very imaginative and interesting Haiku.
