IS THAT MY TOE TALKING?
“or is it screaming?”
#@!@#
When we were younger,
Oh, how you abused me.
Guess you thought I wouldn’t care
And I’d be as silent as could be.
You thought it wouldn’t matter
As long as you had fun.
But I swore one day that I’d get even.
Now that time has come.
Hope you enjoy the pain you’re feeling.
Do you remember what you did to me?
You squeezed and I almost suffocated.
But fashion was all you could see.
Now you’ll need a doctor and
You’ll explain all that you’ve done.
Walking in the highest heels?
Oh boy, now, wasn’t that such fun!
You danced until the sun came up
But never in bare feet!
It’s my turn to take the lead
And I won’t be that discreet.
This is my retaliation
And you need to make that call
For whatever it takes to fix me,
You might lose me, for once and for all.
I am your little toe
That was squeezed to heels so high.
It’s my turn now to cause HUGE pain;
No need to wonder why.
Just remember when we both were young
And you thought that you looked great.
But for all your pride and fashion
Your abuse caused me to hate.
Just heed now what the doctor says
And recall my screams were muffled low.
For while you think this pain is HUGE
I’m (for now) still your little toe.
