Cody Opperman
Plow Fixing
I climb underneath the green plow
Careful of the brown blades
Tim hands me a pipe wrench
Wrench of downfall
Holding the backside of the gang
With wrench to bolt
Tim starts to tighten with his wrench
Wrench braced against frame
Wait while he cranks nut down
Wrench snaps away from the frame
Hit in right hand
Extreme pain
Did not know were it hurts
In bad way
Crawl out from under the plow
Sprint to bathroom
See that flesh stick out
My right ring finger
Wash it off with cold water
Let it run over the end finger
White flesh coming out
Wound at the end of finger
It was crushed out
For there was nothing sharp
I was so drunk with pain
I thought did not need the hospital
Even with an inch by two inches
Strange thing stick out of my finger
But I still went anyway
