Glass Girl by Steven Kenworthy
you walk
like a robot
because your bones are sore.
two three four your steps are slow
march 1 2 3 your birthday is coming up
this years the year to fix up
the rocketship
the new design just in
glass girl
i love your crooked dance
like a slow techno beat in slow motion
take your time in getting dried
i know your heart is strong
white and red
take a spin in
paper i’ve built you this plane
ten thousand to none
so few come here to walk up the aisles,
crystal castle
don’t get wet

Posted by Laurie Blum on 10/24/09 at 03:58 PM I agree... I throughly enjoyed this! The personal SK style always comes through in your poetry. I am always encouraged by your writing. |
Posted by Tony Whitaker on 10/26/09 at 04:44 AM I would suggest not critiquing your own work as this one is, in my humble and most unqualified opinion, is , although still an original and wonderful write, better than your"...airlines" poem. Great piece. |
