Me and my Hand…


 


Me and my hand,


Will never start a band,


Though we can clap to the beat,


Off and on scratching our seat…


 


My hand and I,


We will never quite reach the sky,


Being attached to me my hand will never fly,


Fear of airplanes & high places is just the reason why…


 


No arthritis do we seemingly possess,


Happy about that are we, the gods did us bless,


My hand and I wish we could play chess,


At most we can play checkers, but do so with success…


 


My right hand and I have a relationship,


Living alone we enjoy the self below the hip,


We keep our other appendages happy when we strip,


Hope herein you have enjoyed this our short quip…

Sure did... thanks for the enigmatic references... ! (grin) I thought this was playful, creative, smart, even... but it isn't very brave, is it? You love this stuff... this teasing, on-the-edge naughty stuff. Guess what? You ain't the only one. LOL.

Ok, so give it up, Eddie M... where EXACTLY is the "self below the hip?" I don't seem to have one............ ZING! katy xox
