Feeding a Cold
The fingers
Fed
Holding the sandwich
These digits
That grasped
Handles
Handled by hands
Scratching ears
Digging,
Fondling areas
Picking
Brushing pants
Carrying
Dusty parts
Oily pieces
Splashing,
Spilling coffee cups
Catching sneezes
Hands
Handling handles
The tips
The prints
In ghostly gross unions
Touching,
Unknowingly
The fingers
Fed
Holding the sandwich
Fed
Holding the sandwich
These digits
That grasped
Handles
Handled by hands
Scratching ears
Digging,
Fondling areas
Picking
Brushing pants
Carrying
Dusty parts
Oily pieces
Splashing,
Spilling coffee cups
Catching sneezes
Hands
Handling handles
The tips
The prints
In ghostly gross unions
Touching,
Unknowingly
The fingers
Fed
Holding the sandwich
