Amputation part 2

My finger is gone.

so now I do no tracing

no singing or dancing

no piano playing.

I keep my head low

stay out of trouble

try to forget what painting was like.

No more nose itching

no more chin stroking

never will I pluck

buttercups

as well.

No pointing out flaws

or of splitting hair.

pushing triggers.

playing with nerves.

I’ll focus on hiding my own.

Concealing my poor hand.

My poor mentality.

Will be fine and all is fine

and you

will certainly forget me soon.

In fact

you already have.

I will forget it all soon.

god, I hope.
