Kanzo is a crispy and tasty remnant that clings to end of pot when food is cooked for instance rice or millet.It is a Hausa word.


kanzo

Spiral and crisped
From the pot's own womb
We take to taste
With sweet
Not sweat
Atimes raw
Like biscuit
Or cornflakes
Crispy and tasty
And from our industry
Not theirs.
