Head to Toe, 53

Head to Toe:

Boning Up on the Bones of the Body

Foot (g): proximal phalanges

The longest bone now in your toe—

It stretches some—as you all know.

These proximal phalanges, see,

Are needed much by you and me:

If we don’t have them? Not too swell.

We couldn’t walk—oh, no, not well.
