In Praise of Nails ~~


Hidden. Humble. What holds
what is to its perfect
and exact is-ness

Coat of many colors, bright, gold & silver
somber gray; etched, twisted, ringed,
formed, smooth

smile, surrounded by dimple
Easy, after all, and nearly
too simple

Bright and heavy in the hand. Proud,
necessary. And deeply
joyous
