When words were created,
Sphincter was perfect for what it was.
But it wouldn’t have worked as concerto…
Brahm’s Sphincter in C,
Nor as a family name…
The Sphincters of Lynbrook,
Nor as chicken…
Free range sphincters,
Nor as crown…
Since we’d have Royal Sphincter.
The whiskey of kings.
Not even a sot would order a shot
Of Royal Sphincter.
