Look away quick

I stare intently
at my thumb,
in abject focus.
I see the bones inside,
waiting for me
while I live.
Sight of them,
chills my spine.
Goosebumps,
prick my cozy lifecoat,
(which still has plenty
of wear,
which still has plenty
of wear.)
I look away quick,
old thumb returns,
intact.
I revive sorely renewed.
Peace to the bones,
I'll leave long behind.
