my toenails

wearing sandals because my toenails can reach to the kitchen
If a podiatrist could see them, he would probably be itchin….
Wanting to clip, cut, curl, tear or drill these bad boys
They are pointed, ugly, yellow, and sharp as Lego toys

Great weapons for a bedmate who might harp
I am not kidding, they are incredibly sharp
Like little razors, treacherously tried and true
My husband’s toes are now bruised, black and blue
