Oh yes
Left handed
Unique they say
Maybe a little too unique
Not many people left
Who are like me
I keep my hand out
But don’t know if I have the strength left
To keep it up
My hand used to be held
Used to have support
But then it was burned
Or just like an inviting back
Stabbed
Or taken advantage off
But most of all
Deemed as different
Too plain
Too clammy
Too big
Too little
Too skinny
Too scarred
No criticisms left
Too much
Hundreds of hands reaching out in the crowd
And it seems everyone
Has found their match
Their support
And I’m pretty sure
I’m the only hand left
Left handed
Oh yes
Can you guess I am left handed?
