QUICQUAM REFERRE PUTAVI
It canna maitter, michty me
whither Dodie's moo or airse
lats flee - it's a toss-up for
sotter atween the twa.
Nae doot ees shitehole's
a sicht easier t' thole:
nae teeth there.
The trap's got fangs as lang's
yer airm, gums lik a dungcairt
an crackin lik a cuddie's cunt
pishin oot in simmer.
O bit he's the bees' knees:
the blaegart rides aathin
(hud him tee t' the millstane).
Ony limmer glaums on t' that
quid easy sook plooks aff a
scaffie's backside.
