tiny, sticky

Somewhere sticky
Like a tiny thorn
Stuck on a sock
A tiny rock
Tumbled in shoe
A tiny me
Weathered a tiny you
In a fleshy pocket
The size of a dime
Covered in bone
Sticky, prone
Sticking to other things
Shortly thereafter
Whatever was there
Didn't much care
As long as it hurt
When it came peeling off
That was the mainstay
Capturing soft
Soon hardened up
But just a bit more
Until being sticky
Became such a chore

Good sense to scab up
Soft under surface
Hard on the top
No scars or discolor
Just a space that got filled
More so got willed
