The Wrong Finger

(This is a fictional poem) I've been beaten up over twenty times when I tried to hitch rides. I always used the wrong finger and the people had my hide. I accidentally used my middle finger instead of my thumb. I've been beaten senseless many times because I'm so dumb. People tell me that I should be able to tell the two fingers apart. I dropped out of school in Kindergarten, maybe that's why I'm not smart. When I got the crap beat out of me yesterday, it made me hurl. It was very embarrassing to be beaten up by a six year old girl. When I told my mom about this, she let out a great big chuckle. Those people kicked my ___ but at least I did bruise their knuckles.
