Knuckles
My knuckles look like coke and roses
The winter bit them hard; they cracked
I suck on them; they bleed their noses
I fear they are forever chapped
My knuckles look like milk and lipstick
All dressed in cream and Vaseline
I'm oiled up so says the dipstick
I use supreme silk gasoline
My knuckles look like wine and diamonds
I deck them out most everyday
They never mind the crime and violence
I keep them moist with Tanqueray
My knuckles look like snow and crowbar
They finally just had enough
I tried to run; I didn't go far
My knuckles, unlike me, are rough
