He bent to wash the feet of corpusculed chubby cancled toes
beloted from gout and other luxuries
in a marbled hall from a velvet chair
in flowing silk embroidered robes and such finery
only palaces of noblemen of ancient yore explored.
Not one foot a delicate womans, not one a washerwoman.
Not one the maid, the cook the wife of priest
because that would be unseemly it seems
next to the corpusculed chubby cancled toe rot
beloted from gout from a velvet chair.
Someone said there was a whiff of Jesus in the air
but you had to listen real hard to hear Him.
