Tonight's Poet Corner: Carpenter Syndrome

Carpenter Syndrome
by Belinda Roddie

medical definition:
the pseudo
-psychological urge

to build things,
from

toy ducks to
Noah's Ark,

with a lousy hammer
and a box of bent nails

so rusty 
that you

may contract some form of
tetanus
while using them.

(but that is a disease to be
later disclosed
in this volume)
