Woodchip wallpaper and other delights

A thumbnail
gains a hold in the woodchip.
Pause for a minute and consider
how once you'd have yielded
and dug the nail in.


Consider :-
digging mortar from walls,
amateur archeology,
selected deeds with a penknife.


Consider :-
sitting on the floor,
toes ruffling in the carpet,
as a thumbnail searches the wallpaper.
