My Hands

 

  The skin around my right hand is too tight, it

is crushing the bones in that hand into tiny

sharp pieces, that are cutting through the skin,

and making it bleed. Soon because of the 

considerable pain, and the inability of the hand

to function properly, I will have to ask my father

to amputate it, like he did with my left hand...

  Here he comes now with the meat cleaver...

  Afterwards when the stump has stopped bleeding,

he will make me a wooden hand to fit upon the

wrist, like he did after he amputated my left hand.

I just hope I don't get termites...

  I would ask him to fit a plastic one on, but he is a carpenter,

and I wouldn't like him to be insulted, and anyhow he 

did an excellent job with my feet...
