SPITTING NAILS
They came in the mail today,
American Brand Spitting Nails,
"For when you're really angry."
If you favor spewing tiny wounds,
the instructions tell you how
to spit the missile...
"Pucker up,
blow a kiss, turn it into
a poison dart."
Also stated, "When attacked,
don't pass the buck,
return the insult.
You may penetrate the skin with nails,
(but remember)
you can only pierce the soul
with words."
Beginners: if you prefer,
don't break the flesh,
but rend the garment
till the thread begins to unravel.
Keep in mind,
anger begins anew
as it ends,
so re-order your supply of
Spitting Nails,
today.
