Small Potatoes

I'm sick, sore and sorry
at the sight of you
and your small potatoes.

With all the fine big potatoes
in the pit
you'd think we could have a few decent
ones for dinner.

But no! you are far too lazy,
too idle, too ugly.
Lazy, ugly, idle, rotten,
good for nothing
you and your small potatoes.
