Just One Scapel
Let me alone with just one scapel
Let me give my brain some rest.
It has done way too many thinking
That my head would not stop throbbing.
If for lack of it I die,
Before my grave please put it back
So when before the Lord I stand,
I may know how well to explain
That I didn't know I needed brains
Until the day I took them out.
About this poem
