A compound dovetail will not flex
It holds a corner fast and firm
With angles which are not complex
A glueless, nailless, screwless term
A thought held fast within a box
A compound dovetail will not flex
For pin and tail each interlocks
There where the right angle projects
One side concave and one convex
A perfect marriage without flaw
A compound dovetail will not flex
To make a sturdy box or drawer
Absorbs more than the wood can take
Wherever each side intersects
The middle of the box may break
A compound dovetail will not flex
