Haines Manual

I have a scar on my right thumb
that sits in between,
unbolt and remove sprocket
and replace blood covered bushes.

It doesn’t say that the puckered skin
will smell of two stroke and wet leather
or make you think of motorcycle rides
when that fat thumb hovers over a poem.

Scars often become our instruction manuals. Glad you could join, Keith.
