All the tools
I’m afraid to use
Custom built
Hardware
I machined them
Worked with them
So beautiful and
So personal
That I’m afraid
Of breaking them
Each seems so fragile
In my hand
So thin and
Ergonomically slick
Inner workings
Heavy and intently
Needing to be
Manipulated
In order to use
Yet being so small
As to seem like
It’s got a lifespan
And I yearn for it
To be
Immortal
