Delightful Cousin Samantha

Samantha is as delightful as an ingrown toenail.
As wonderful as a virus, hearty and hale.
She was a corn on the bottom of my foot.
Her caustic tongue as long as a tree root.
The rest of the family said “give her a chance”
But I had to let her go, so I could dance.
She entertains the rest of them with her vile.
I prefer keeping my distance, and natural smile.
