Middle Finger

When raising just one finger Does it matter which finger lingers The middle one Can't be outdone It sure is a multi-tasking flicker

Might be due to being a mud slinger, Which had looked like a humdinger; When viewed, Clothed or nude, And down house was bright bringer.

You are really putting out the poems while giving everyone the finger. Which one was it and on which hand?

I think it was the French, flashing the finger to the English: I still have my trigger finger. Don't quote me though.
