Hands
February 24, 2009
Ligament to ligament
bone to bone
Symmetrically unidentical
each finishing an arm
Ultra violets permanently
blemish the outer core
Nails lack in vitamins
jaggedly carved like half-finished sculptures
A pinkish hump no larger
than a tiny pebble shows
the recent meal of an insect
Though they are fortunate
as many from war-ridden countries are
torn from owners
For that I am grateful
To hold
To grab
To write this poem
