By Lone Poet

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Once in a la-la land called Nod There lived a girl who was odd She sucked her thumb ‘til 18 The yuckiest one ever seen You see, that thumb was fake Her real first digit fell off Sucking so much made it break Overstretched, becoming too soft Then cracked, snapping like a twig The girl bandaged half of it to a cig Now her hands smell just like tobacco And everybody thinks she’s a wacko © 2/7/02, 3/22/04 SmSDon't ask, wrote it in a state of exhaustion one night.  I know not what I have done.
