Then

If boxers worked at farms making bales Then we would call them haymakers If hammers are made to hit nails Then they could be finger breakers If boxers ate hay everyday for lunch Then bale making would be hands free If the haymakers really pack a punch Then that’d be the last straw for me If fingers were stronger than hammers Then consider boxer’s hands armed If they’re used for more than nail slammers Then bales are made in jails, not farmed April 12, 2023 Writing Challenge-T words poetry contest Sponsor: Constance La France
