    This is what I can make out:

    “Oh Aggies doest thou (something) too,
    that your faults lie deeper than stinky socks,
    and that when your mother gave birth to you,
    she suffered from the pox.

    But though you’ll think me tacky,
    I’ll suppose that it’s not rare,
    that for beneath your (something) khaki,
    lies crotchless underwear.

    So Aggies that from grace you fell,
    we’ll concede this if you let us,
    your shaven domes are heads after all…

    though only ones of lettuce.”

    Frankly, I think that we’re better off not reading this one.

    …thou (remember) too,…

    …your (army) khaki….

    Actually, it looks more like “…thou wonder too,…”

    CandO2666, you’re right…it does. Makes more sense, too.

    “That FAR beneath your Army khaki”

    So that’s how to get a good reading - assign it to a committee!

    But it’s STILL an awful poem, in rhyme, rhythm, grammar,… you name it…
