The Egyptian god, Thoth, wath a nutter’
he couldn’t thay hith etheth, only thplutter.
It wath a thpeech impediment
cauthed by exthethive thediment
that altho made him thtutter.
In a thtate of great fruthtration,
he chothe in dethperation—
thelf-defenethtration!
*Written in response to a challenge by Scarborough Gypsy to write a rhymed poem as though with a lisp and containing the words,
'stutter', 'impediment', 'defenestration'.
