Bunionectomy
My foot, it sports a bunion,
bone that sprouts an onion,
it leans far to the left,
which gives my gait some heft.
But to grant a gait proportionate
the doctor needs to operate,
a procedure so to summarize:
rip the flesh and pulverize,
then fasten what remains with screws.
Elevate your feet, eschew shoes,
morphine drips for screaming pain
(a few more weeks and it will wane).
Why lumber with deformity,
when a foot can fit conformity?
A fit foot fleet, no lump to rue,
Let’s do it again, I’ll take two.
