A hand Five fingers The veined back and fleshy palm. Two hands Ten fingers A woman's hand
Mine are scarred Accidents and fights Only on my right hand.
A woman's hands Palms On my cheeks Soft and warm.
It's been years. Since a woman's touched Me. Eyes shut Soul open Bewitched by the palms Of a woman's two hands And the magic of a new memory. They last the longest.
Drawing by Egon Schiele
Comic book characters rarely had all their fingers. Many artists are unable to draw a hand, which I've always deemed to be the cause for the advent of abstract expressionism. Most recently I went online to look at wedding bands for a friend. The website offered this image.
Not really a hand.
Then again nothing on the internet is real.
Just zeroes and ones.
Binary number system developed from the I Ching
It holds the power of the known universe.
For man and hands.
