pass the water, please

verde, chile, jalapeno,
habanero, ghost,
cayenne and chipotle
with avocado toast

flavors found at festival
in hatch, new mexico
slow roasted, fresh salsa,
ristras strung to go

smokin’ hot, fire-breathing
it’s not hard to understand
sgt. pepper’s membership
in lonely hearts club band!
