What Is A Goit?

For what is a Goit if not it be black?
A Goit is a Goit and that is that
As black as a crow, as black as a cat
A Goit is an enchanted artifact

A Goit may be skinny, a Goit may be fat
It may raise itself up or squash itself flat
Sometimes bareheaded, more oft in a hat
Its hair is well-beaded and fashioned in plats

Should ever a Goit of differing hue
Appear at your table from out of the blue
Its aspect ill-favoured, unpleasant to view
Then bid it farewell, god's speed & adieu!

A Goit is tumescent, effulgent & bold
A Goit is indulgent and flatters the soul
A Goit is a warbler, a weaver of tales
A Goit often wanders in weary travail

A Goit is a needle, a Goit is a saw
A Goit is a blade that cleaves bodies in twa
A Goit offers comfort and welcome relief
A Goit brings sweet slumber, solace & peace

But lo! hear the thunder, a Goit is enrag'd
It lumbers ungainly from out of a cave
Its cognitive process but dimly engaged
'Gainst rascal & scoundrel it rants and it raves

A scruple of Goit with some fresh orange peel
If taken at supper will cure all your ills
Two grammes of Goit with some freshly milled pepper
Will improveth the blood and maketh ye better

A tincture of Goit subtle rendered in spirit
With consummate care you must slowly distill it
Reduce in a cauldron, be mindful to stir it
Now wonderfully focussed, this Goit has no limit
