The Belly and the Members
One fine day it occurred to the Members of the Body
that they were doing all the work and the Belly was
having all the food. So they held a meeting, and after a
long discussion, decided to strike work till the Belly
consented to take its proper share of the work. So for a
day or two, the Hands refused to take the food, the
Mouth refused to receive it, and the Teeth had no work
to do. But after a day or two the Members began to find
that they themselves were not in a very active condition:
the Hands could hardly move, and the Mouth was all
parched and dry, while the Legs were unable to support
the rest. So thus they found that even the Belly in its dull
quiet way was doing necessary work for the Body, and
that all must work together or the Body will go to pieces.
