I Think There Is a Piece Missing
A spoons not dangerous
i have heard
But in its bevel
in its curve
lies your eyeball
globe and nerve
Can't you see
with the one i left
Struggle and scream
bite your tongue
well the parts i stuffed
back in your mouth
stuck your eye brows
above your lips
weird moustache
but somehow it fits
sewed both ears
to make a butterfly shape
is it that a smile
that the scalpel made
My doctor advised some
time ago a hobby would be good
Started a jigsaw
and your the bits
