Noisy Ghost Limb

I can hear him clattering as he loads the dishwasher. He always seems to do it as if he has three arms – a rogue extra limb devoted purely to banging and clashing, announcing what he is doing to anyone within earshot. “I’m doing housework”, the extra arm says. “I’m doing something constructive, a duty, and you should be too.”

I hate that phantom arm.
