    About this ebook

    Cooking the Stars, by Sam Bailey, contains all new poems that are sometimes whimsical, sometimes serious, and often a combination of both. These simple and plain verses may not be as simple as they first appear. A second or third reading may take you somewhere you didnt expect. Or then again, maybe you did. Or maybe youre already there. Or maybe you are and you dont really want to be.
    At any rate, this little book is intended for your enjoyment, so have fun!
