What If I Have Only One Arm? Poem by RIC BASTASA

What If I Have Only One Arm?



if i have only one arm left
i still take the pleasure of using to the utmost
the remaining arm
i will take my coffee one at a time
open a jar with sugar
take a spoonful
and take the cup
and pour hot water there
i prefer the right arm
rather than the left
if one arm be lost.

just that, i am right handed
and you are left handed
we still complement each other and that
is the most important thing that
can happen to me.
