Wound

Wound

A Poem by Astro
"

"Oops I did it again!"

"
The slice
The cut
That hanging fin
That piece of skin
catches everything

The sting
The bite
That recoiled sight
That vision white
pain gripped fists so tight

Watch the blood
See it bleed

Underwater
Then bandage heed

The pulse
The throb
That rushing swell
That burn from Hell
lesson learned oh so well

Finger cuts are inconvenient... we use our fingers all the time... sharp slice of reality here (excuse the pun)

Put your big boy pants on and get on with it, ha fin, I thought you a fish for a moment, then I glimpsed the pic. Lesson learned, and a clever poem to boot.

Thank you very much Costa for the review.
Haha i do love this and I can most certainly relate. It's amazing how you realize just how much you use a digit after you have injured it.
