To make it work,
you need, in fact,
an ounce of this,
a pinch of that:
two whiskers from
a stubborn cat,
a half an ounce
of bacon fat,
a blade of grass
from a cow pat,
three specks of dust
from the doormat,
a splinter from
an aged wine vat,
machine oil from
a rusted gat.
Mix it all
in a tophat,
then grind the blend
between brickbats.
Now drink it down,
and that is that.
