My index finger makes little circles winding winding then I switch hands gently thrusting the belly forward and for a short time the un-knotting rubber band powers the balsa plane aloft.

Aren't you too old for this. Cutting paper dolls can at least be dignified with the name, origami. Thrusting the belly forward to music of The Rubber Band does have an unknotting.

You will recieve ,this Christmas, from Zodiac:

A cat-o-nine tails, Some kind of fastening device-fuzzy velcro-, possibly just rope, and a ball gag.

I like it. I don't know why you switch hands.

It's not very sporting of you to turn the subject of the conversation away from your poem before we get the chance to.
