The Kleenex
(C) Geoff May



Nasal excrements of minute proportion
Belong no place other than the facial portion.
So wipe them clean with long soft pecks,
Clean them up with a new Kleenex!

Wipe them not on hand or sleeve,
Lest you make others want to leave.
Reach one hand to where the box lays,
To where it's been laying for maybe days.

Then in a quick blur, snatch your hand back away,
And hope that in your hand some Kleenex lay.
With a flourish then, raise your hand to your nose
And dap, wipe, blow, whatever... who knows?

Please be sure then to crumple it up
And toss it away, but quick, hurry up! Cuz....

Nasal excrements of minute proportion
Belong no place other than the facial portion.
So wipe them clean with long soft pecks,
Clean them up with a new Kleenex!
