''My Fingernail
(Inspired by an injury I got. Not for the faint of stomach.)
I slammed my index finger in a door
And it’s become a vile shade of violet;
It’s tingling, throbbing, swelling, fat and sore;
The nail might rupture if I tried to file it.
When it has turned the color of molasses
From being full of fluids, pus and crud,
I’ll poke it with a needle, wearing glasses
To shield my eyes from any squirts of blood.
Not rotting eggplants, nor a dying snail,
Nor Romeo’s lips while flushed in loving ardor
Could be as reddish-purple as a nail
That’s recently been mangled in a car door.
If I do this again, it will abolish
Any need I have for purple polish.''

Vurn, what if I've always hated Jerry? They haven't thought of that, now, have they?
