Beadwork
Strands of beads.
Need three hands
holding this thing
plus three more hands
holding that thing,
slide my thumbnail
under a split ring
to hold it open
long enough to force
a loop through it,
but my thumbnail slips.
I scream.
Strands "recoil" here,
strands "twap" there,
some "twuang,"
some "toing"
everywhere.
Need two more hands
to hold beads,
strands, clips,
loops, rings,
wire, pliers,
STY-
RO-
FOAM.
G-r-r-r!
GET ON THERE!
AAAACK!
