The Pick

This is it
The perfect pick
But where in the world do I flick it

Thought I had 
This habit kicked
Here is proof I didn't

Maybe if 
I wear oven mitts
Then pointer finger would listen

Lately it's 
Been hit and miss
With my daily pickings

Guess this is 
Just what it is
As I go back to digging
