Medicine For the Mentally Wounded
Location
My hands are thin,
My fingers slim
I scrub them an srub them
But they are calloused from helping him.
My shoulder is bony
And dry to the touch
But she brings life to it
By crying a little too much
My stomach is flat
Yet it always makes me cringe
But a child rests on it
Swinging with a hand like a hinge
I am weak,
My arms too skinny,
But I continue to carry the psychologically damaged
And I do it with a grin - see
