Itch

Have you ever had an itch
in the middle of your back?

No matter what you do,
you just can't scratch.

You reach and reach,
but it doesn't work.

You rub against a door jam,
But it only gets worse.

You even find and object,
something long and sharp.

You try and reach it,
but that one spot, NOT.

You can't rest, sleep,
or even slump.

This persistent itch
has made you a grump.

One thing my buddy
will cool that fire.

A wire hanger,
you can bend the wire.

You must be careful,
because it can cut.

Turn it gently
And scratch that spot.

Before you know it,
the itch will stop.
