Pencil

What's in my hand is made of normal wood,
Even though sometimes useless it'll help you make something good.
Some have curves and others bend,
though no matter what it looks like it will help you in the end.
They can make nightmares, but also dreams,
but those nightmares they make aren't as bad as they first seem.
They can make words, poems and even art,
you can make wise stories of reality and of wacky imagination,
art good enough to get in a museum or a scribble you show to friends and family.
