Our Fingers (Achievement #58 = 2 points)
Our Fingers
What an amazing feat of evolution
But have you ever noticed
How they are so often
The source of irritating noises
Such as typing endlessly text messages, instead of talking
Persistent staccato tapping, of an inanimate object
Or dragging your fingers across a pane of glass
Which is my pet hate
They have proven to be very versatile
Humanity has adapted them in many ways
For other more disgusting things
Such as playing with your extremities
Squishing acne, over the bathroom mirror
Or picking your nose
Which is my pet hate
We could go on forever
But let's end it here
By being rude
And sticking our forefinger in the air
As a typical departing gesture
Footnote: What an interesting subject for a poem, it highlights a couple of my pet hates, but if we are honest, not a single one of us has not performed any of these at one time or another.
