Fingers, come hitherers,
feelers, strokers and shakers,
scratchers and prodders,
ticklers, shapers and makers,
pack a big punch,
pay, pray and press,
get up your nose,
hoik up your dress.
But even all eight
are not worth a crumb
without their adjoining
squat, fat thumb.
Try clicking your fingers
or holding a plate
Fingers are dextrous
but they need counterweights.
