Pot and Kettle

"Oho! Oho!" said the pot to the kettle,

"You're dirty and ugly and black!

Sure no one would think you were made of metal,

Except when you're given a crack."

"Not so! not so!" kettle said to the pot.

" 'Tis your own dirty image you see.

For I am so clear, without blemish or blot,

That your blackness is mirrored in me."
