The Halves and the Halve-Nots
Posted: April 27, 2008
Why splitting hares can drive you bugs…
In soph-o-more biology,
I had to pith a frog.
My friends who went to "doctor" school
were forced to dissect dogs.
For science sake they slice up rats
beneath a microscope.
A sharpened scalpel carving flesh
will give sick people hope.
But bunnies are not halved, are they?.
The thought just leaves me ill.
And yet a rabbit cut in twain
some char upon a grill.
While many halve, far more halve not.
But when push comes to dare,
the halve nots (of which I am one)
are simply splitting hares.
