Slivers, Thumb & Forefinger

One for the reach
another by grasp
extended, fended,
bent and clasped

the tumbled weed
was steady held
under carriage 
full-on weld

and the driver
pushes stop
pulls the lever 
and the lock

grab and pull
and wish for
strength laden
on the thorny 

length, filled 
the asphalt with
its vice, jammed
and moved that

strong device
upon the exit
of the torn
former bush that

now is worn
in two fingers 
which would hold
the tweezers opposite

now fold.
