Pinch
poem by:
Siren Song
Written
on Dec 24, 2022
It barely hurts, I promise She brushes my hair from my face Just a quick pinch, then it’s over A pinch how hard? Do you want me to show you? Yes Later, holding completely still while a nice young woman delivers three shots to my left arm, she tells me how brave I am See? What did I tell you? It hurt more when you pinched me The nurse laughs, my mother laughs, and I laugh too, and I never forgive her
