O. Henry, Afrite-Chef of all delight —

Of all delectables conglomerate

That stay the starved brain and rejuvenate

The Mental Man! The æsthetic appetite —

So long enhungered that the "inards" fight

And growl gutwise – its pangs thou dost abate

And all so amiably alleviate,

Joy pats his belly as a hobo might

Who haply hath obtained a cherry pie

With no burnt crust at all, ner any seeds;

Nothin' but crisp crust, and the thickness fit.

And squashin'-juicy, an' jes' mighty nigh

Too dratted, drippin'-sweet for human needs,

But fer the sosh of milk that goes with it.
