Girl
by George Hoernergirl do you
think?
as winter
warms
and turns to spring
girl do you
think?
as you comb
your hair
and prepare
for another day
girl do you
think?
as the mundane
tasks
pursue you
through the day
girl do you
think?
as daylight pales
and the sky turns
to stars
girl do
you think?
as you
lie in bed
and another
day ends
girl do you think?
ever
of
me?

| Posted by A. Paige White on 10/10/08 at 06:06 PM Oh, the html definitely adds to the depth of it. Though I have to admit, I was quite convinced it was going somewhere "blonde" at first, lol. I was already empathizing with the non, well-maybe-occasionally, thinker... Yes, I am a sick, sick woman. Great poem George. |
| Posted by Alison McKenzie on 10/10/08 at 06:16 PM Excellent use of that tool, George! I hope she does, and I hope the "me" of it isn't as small as you portrayed. |
| Posted by Jeffrey Parren on 10/10/08 at 11:02 PM This is powerful even before the ending...the ending simply clinches everything while informing as well. ~JPP |

| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 10/13/08 at 04:49 PM Simple questions made compelling by your structure here. Cool. |
| Posted by Tony Whitaker on 10/14/08 at 02:50 AM Cool use of HTML and it works well with the build up and then the ending is a nice turn. |
