    AFTER I’VE SCRATCHED FROM HEAD TO TOE,
    WHERE DO ALL THOSE ITCHES GO?
    UNDER THE COVERS, DOWN IN THE RUG?
    ARE THEY A NERVOUS SENSATION…
    OR A SMALL HUNGRY BUG?

    DO THEY RUN OR DO THEY JUMP
    WITH A WELL PRACTICED GRACE?
    ARE THEY SILENTLY WATCHING
    FROM A DARK HIDING PLACE?

    ARE THEY PATIENTLY WAITING
    AND PREPARED TO ATTACK,
    THE MOMENT I SHOULD HAPPEN
    TO JUST TURN MY BACK?

    DO THEY HURT WHEN I SCRATCH THEM,
    DO THEY SQUISH OR DO THEY CRACK?
    DO THEY LEAVE TINY SMEARS
    ON THE SKIN OF MY BACK?

    IF I FILTERED MY BATH WATER
    THROUGH A GOSSAMER STRAIN,
    AND THEN LOOKED VERY CLOSELY,
    WOULD I FIND THEM AGAIN?

    OR MAYBE THEY ARE THOUGHTS
    THAT ONCE LIVED IN MY HEAD,
    AND FEELING NEGLECTED
    THEY SNUCK OUTSIDE INSTEAD!

    UNPREPARED FOR THIS WILD,
    SCARY EXTERNAL RIDE,
    I FEEL THEM AS ITCHES
    WHEN THEY RUN BACK INSIDE!

    SO THAT SPOT ON MY HEAD
    THAT IS ITCHING SO BAD,
    IS THE THOUGHT THAT I NEED
    WHEN I MULTIPLY OR ADD!

    AND THAT ITCH ON MY BACK
    THAT IS DRIVING ME MAD @#$% !
    JUST MIGHT BE THE BEST THOUGHT
    MY MIND EVER HAD!

    COULD IT BE? IF IT IS,
    WELL THEN WHAT SHOULD I DO?
    BY DECIDING TO SCRATCH
    I’D REDUCE MY IQ!

    OH WHAT TERRIBLE
    AND TWISTED PROPOSITION
    TO BE FORCED TO ENDURE,
    TO PRESERVE ERUDITION.

    I THINK IN A SHORT TIME
    I’D BE INSANE…
    IF THE PRICE OF A WHOLE MIND
    WERE TO NOT SCRATCH AGAIN!
