Hands,under the double hand amputee's eyes
You areforepaws of the crawling babe
foreclaws of the swinging trapezist
wings of the skydiver
flippers of the swimmer
eloquent mouth of pantomime dance and drama
and read
braille for the blind
body for the masseur
keyboard for the pianist
and fold
into a fist for the boxer
and open
as helping hand.
How I miss
without you
the ceremonial embrace
the friendly hug
the human warmth emanating hand shake
that for ever stays in the soul
as I walk through the doors that feel my sense,
activate the elevator with my voice
and laptop screen with my eyes
and pedal control
all my authentic needs!
