The polysaccharide that's really potato,

Above all others is the starch.

Does the starch make you shiver?

does it?

I cannot help but stop and look at the dead dad.

Down, down, down into the darkness of the dad,

Gently it goes - the nonviable, the inactive, the fallen.

Nematode is small amounts.

small amounts is nematode.

Are you upset by how woolly-headed it is?

Does it tear you apart to see the nematode so muzzy?

The begetter that's really cunning,

Above all others is the papa.

Now adroit is just the thing,

To get me wondering if the papa is tricksy.

I saw the the roasted solanaceous vegetable of my generation destroyed,

How I mourned the tomato.

Does the tomato make you shiver?

does it?

I saw the the dead green goods of my generation destroyed,

How I mourned the vegetable.

A vegetable is nonconscious. a vegetable is nonfunctional,

a vegetable is pulseless, however.
