A Poem of No Purpose Done For the Sake of Writing

Dry skin caused by frozen winter winds Caused by over washing Too much caution given to cleanliness The rough ridges distinctly defined Will soon go away with care and time These epidermal deserts Are greatly in need of an oasis Some lotion for lubrication To make the redness in the deserts turn to tan And now I wonder, why? Why am I writing about my hands?
