The Insignificant Gnat
The insignificant gnat is one
of nature's smallest creatures;
one is hardly able to see it at all,
never mind make out its features,
yet just let one of them come between
your trousers and your thighs
and you'll find it has a bite that's
disproportionate to its size.
The trouble caused by one little gnat
is something quite atrocious;
it's bite produces the kind of itch
which might be deemed ferocious.
It can send a person round the bend,
drive you out of your mind
and oh! the awful embarrassment when
one gets you from behind.
