Dining on bratwurst

Rain on the roof, the birds twitter-
ing. Jealousy? Or just another
answer to what to have with your
grilled sausages? The calliope in
the next room whistles a tune
whose unheard words suggest

ice-cold beer; but then it hasn't
been out in a long time, ever
since it came out as binary &
celebrated by fluctuating be-
tween major & minor keys, de-
pending on who was in the room.

I will probably end up relying on
YouTube for appropriate suggest-
ions, even though the most auth-
entic will be in the mother tongue
& these days my German is rusty.
