Nov 2013
My thumb it got stuck in the door.
Hell on earth it's really sore.
It's black and blue.
Tender as a kitten.
Kitten desperate for milk.

Late for work.
In a rash dash.
Trying to get my coffee made.
Thumb wedged tight into the fridge.
Boss came with daily book.
Thumbnail black and blue.
Just look.
Expletives flew out by the score.

Given my sore thumb a name.
I called him Tom.
Cos he's very small and in much pain.
I won't do that again!
