Last week,
Not keeping
Track,
I burned
My finger
On the
Oven
Rack.
This certainly
Made me
Wince,
And has
Troubled
Me
Ever since.
Difficult
To
Manage
Such
Hideous
Damage,
And it
Doesn’t
Seem
Fair
That I’m
Still
Holding
The finger
In the
Air.
A Band-Aid
Doesn’t
Quite
Stretch,
And I
Keep
Banging
Into the
Wretch.
Alas,
This
Punishment
Must befit
Someone
Too dumb
To wear
An
Oven
Mitt.
