Hands

A response to stress,

I’m a nervous mess,      

And, I just don’t know

what to do with my hands.

I’m awkward in charm,

Drink connects with palm,

But what do I do with my hands?

I pretend to inspect,

My nails I dissect,

Tell me, what do I do with my hands?

So, I stick them inside,

My jean pockets to hide,

It’s something to do with my hands.

So socially stagnant,

Movement to prevent,

I’ll die if I don’t find– 

Just what do I do with my hands?
