BATTERED FINGER NAILS

A child is at the piano with her teacher.

Where is the letter from the old man?

There are fish in a tank and that tank is inside another tank. A young man and I both try to adjust the thermostat, which is up high on the upper right side of the tank.

The man calls a cab from a woman’s house. Instead he rents a car.

A long skinny vase with its insides showing, like a vagina.

A nun is minding five children. She scraps up jam on a tray. The tray has a sugar bowl and a coffee cup on it.

Finger nails that are battered by the Church.

I run out of space to put in the thumb, so I place it up high...it becomes a penis.
