Itchy

Its starts, a slight twitch,
something crawling within.
And before very long
you are scratching your skin...
And scratching and raking,
with fingers, with nails
Until lying before you,
Your blood-stained skin scales.

Why didn't God give us at least one arm facing the other way?I am going crazy right now because the centre of my back has an itch and I can't reach it...also you are to blame as it was fine before I read this.
YOUR POEM is funny witty and unfortunately true.
