2021 Oktoberfest cancelled, thus babel of voices not heard

rew4er2nail

Ordinarily approximately sixteen days

of barley, hops and malt brew

to ale any even those who cannot chew
the cud subsequently most foods I eschew

courtesy maxiofacial malady

or lack of teeth perhaps even a few

that goot yanked out

 

after misshapen choppers grew

from uncommon body sites,

and I declare constituted hue

man dental dilemma –

somewhat dire oral issue,

yet now tis time to party

and imbibe whether gentile or Jew

 

in this 210th anniversary,

sans revelry nobody knew

boot beer brouhaha

actually named from German locale loo

cull hamlet that now sports

more’n 6 million stein ways that moo

after getting punch drunk

 

to rejoice at German reunification
October 3, 1990, hence new

reasonable rhyme referred
to occasion as unity day

held in an area Theresienwiese – phew

what a mouthful field, or meadow,
of Therese), where carousers queue.

 

Often called Wiesn for short,
located near Munich's center to gorge

on a wide variety of traditional food such

as Hendl (chicken), Schweinebraten (roast pork),

Schweinshaxe (grilled ham hock),

Steckerlfisch (grilled fish on a stick),

Würstl (sausages) along with Brezeln (Pretzel),

 

Knödel (potato or bread dumplings),

Käsespätzle (cheese noodles),

Reiberdatschi (potato pancakes),

Sauerkraut or Rotkohl/Blaukraut (red cabbage)

along with such Bavarian delicacies as Obatzda

(a spiced cheese-butter spread)

and Weisswurst (a white sausage).
