Poem:Red Nails.
Red Nails.
.
.
I always thought that old people
had disgusting feet because they didn’t care
about long yellow nails and cracked heels.
I did not realize that their problem
is more likely to be that they simply cannot
see well enough, or bend down low enough
to actually look at them properly,
so painting their nails is an impossible
and exotic option however much they might wish it.
