Please, Mr, Scientist, so wise,
Since you "pot liquor" do so raise
To nth degree, nutrition size,
Send us another screed to praise
In learned phrase, "pot liquor's" true
And constant partner, good "'corn pone";
Oh, we "down South" do beg of you
Leave not our childhood's friend alone;
But drop in scientific stew--
Of course in language hard to read--
A "corn pone hunk"--we promise you
A noble, satisfying "feed."
Then honorable mention take
Our "side meat," then such generous share,
Such unction and such healing make
As "inner consciousness" should bear.
In earlier days we only knew
"Pot Liquor" and we did not bow
To "vitamines," Alas! 'tis true,
Bacon, a real aristocrat is now.
