Cutting the Cheese

It curd to me (sorry I had to squeak that one in) Not everybody can tolerate you In fact some people think you outright stink Sure you can be sharp But you spread it on so thick and creamy Please Don't be blue You are stronger than that Besides You do always have the best topper It's just that it's a stretch When the heat is on Will you stay Or will you melt away?

Viewing this one a second time, I notice that 'stink' seems to be a motif lately. Hmmmm. (Rots of raughs, my deaw. --Elmer F) :)
