    "Pulling Stitches"
    I pull the stitches from my fingertip,
       wincing with the expectation of a
             never-realized
                   pain.
    "Isn't it funny," I think to myself,
       "how it's the things that hold us together
             that slip through our fingers
          so easily..."
