I Write This With Bent,
Broken, Bloody Fingers,
The Bones Twisted,
The Knuckles Snapped,
Fingers Aching,
And The Wrist Cracked,
To Much Aching,
Not Enough Width,
To Get This Done, With Just The Broken Fingertips,
Bent Fingers Don't Make For Good Writing.

The author's comments:
My grandmother always use to write stories until one day she found herself to have arthritis. Broken and sad, she laid the pen down on the desk and found herself to not be able to find the joy of writing anymore...until I picked up the pen.
