From Head to Toe, 23



Head to Toe:
Boning Up on the Bones of the Body


Chest (a): hyoid bone

A horseshoe shape this bone can boast—
This hyoid bone beneath you tongue.
Because of it you eat some roast—
Oh, such a bone—so long unsung!

But there it is, in all of us,
Beneath our notice—we don’t care:
As long as it makes little fuss,
We laugh and eat—well, anywhere!
