Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, That Didn't Hurt, seems to give a snapshot of some DIY gone bad. The hole in the head can't be all bad, but it must be somewhat bad.

Thank you, Bill. I wanted the picture frame up with a certificate of carpentry accomplishment. But, I reigned myself in.
Tied for 2nd!

Comment from Carolyn Dooley
This is something that happens. People will hurt themselves and keep working. This was a great poem. I have known of people who did not want others to think they were weak. When a person is hurt, they need to own up and go to the doctor to get a tetanus shot. Thank you.

I know what you mean. There is nothing wrong with second. You sound like a great carpenter with pride and that is a winner. The world needs more people like you. And you are welcome. Frame it and be proud.

This one made me laugh and cringe at the same time. I'm really kind of a big baby when it comes to injury....I can't take much. Funny though, I enjoyed this very much. :)

Comment from T B Botts
Hello Author,
That sounds pretty painful, to say the least. Ouch! When I saw the picture of the pig, I thought you were going to say something about dispatching it with the nail gun. I lived on a farm with a bunch of other people who didn't know what they were doing, and one day the door to the pig sty came down and hit the boar hog in the head and killed him. It might have been OK, but some knucklehead left a nail sticking out through the other side. Good luck in the contest.
Blessings
Tom

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Yet he still wants to finish the job! Very clever interpretation of the writing prompt. I enjoyed the poem, but was unsure of what the pig with the cigar has to do with anything, lol! I also enjoyed your comment 'no brain, no pain'. Perfect.

I am a living example that not all men are natural carpenters, handymen or someone who needs to have a hammer, saw, or paintbrush in their hand. My handyman skills are writing and endorsing a check.
