		 It tastes good.
		 It sounds good.
But his wife thinks otherwise,
	For nobody is going to steal any time out of her life.

I saw her legs,
	Jostling through a crowd,
		With nothing but a bag of eggs.
I saw the color bursting,

		To her hip and its tag,
I saw the brave life,
	From the egg
		To her neck and its gag.
I saw almost everything,
	Except the eggs and the legs.
