A sketch became a poem

A crippled appendage hangs useless Scarred and broken by abuse Bible long taken Begging for attention Accepting alms Lonely in its obsolescence

Love the sketch. Do they still have payphones anywhere? Whenever I was in need, trapped in my electric wheelchair with my hands unable to handle coins or dial phones anymore, someone would come along with a cell phone and make the call for me.

But perhaps I have misread the poem.
