THE THYROID GLAND, by                    
First Line: If you removed my thyroid gland
Last Line: Are all my thyroid gland.
Subject(s): Animals; Oxen


If you removed my thyroid gland,
I should become an ox,
Without the power to command
A single paradox.

The interest I feel in God
Is all my thyroid gland.
My quick inventions quaint and odd,
The glorious works I planned,

The splendid sweep my fancy takes
Wide over sea and land,
Also my various mistakes,
Are all my thyroid gland.
