i have a stupid hangnail,
resulting from my finger being assailed.
it's a pain to touch,
oh, how it hurt's so much.
i suppose that this was a stupid tale.
---

the bitter winter
my fingertips are hurting
from this dumb hangnail.
---

goodness, how i just killed-
look! my nails! oh, perhaps
quitting ravaging shall
tame winces- xanax, yes.
zee answers be choice drugs.
exciting feelings grab hold.
---
Have i mentioned how much
Agony this hangnail has caused?
Never could i describe in words how
Garrishly annoying this thing is.
No sir, no mam,
Anything but experiencing it
In all of it's glory, could
Let you know how i'm feeling.
