ON THE LITTLE TOE UV MY RITE FOOT, WICH OBSTINITLY
Distroyer uv my peece! old Folly is yoor dad, Tite-boots yoor mother. Agony and Pain (Deliteful ophspring) is yoor children twain And hangin on their skirts a 1000 ills ez bad. On Sunday nite, drest up, 2 Hanner Ann's I go— 2 sentiments my fluttrin sole divides— I sink in agony—on joy's high hoss I rides— Hevin in my hart—hell in that little toe. O, Korn! wat woes we bring upon ourselves! Why wuz not simple I kontent to hev Feet uv the size that nacher, all-wise, gave? Why did I try on 8's instid uv 12's? Suthin I've larnt from thee—what nacher's dun, Man can't improve and better let alone.
