Amin's Find

I've found part of a girl's arm
beside a charred crate
in the alley beside our house -
yesterday's explosion -
the ambulance workers
and soldiers
must have been sloppy.
The hand is flawless -
the stub-end sheer glistening black.
It feels like nothing
I've ever held before.

A plain silver ring on the second finger -
they're supple and pliant
as if she's sleeping.

I'm going to wash it
it's so lovely -
my new favorite toy.
