Gia walks these
gemstone streets,
a Gemini uncoupled.
Break her open
and you’ll find her
elbow’s broken
but her
(searching)
soul’s anew.
She’s an ogre
in indigo jeans,
and she means well
when she says Jell-O
is the best dressed goo.
Wish you were here,
she whispers, but where?
Who knows?
I swear,
she’s never been one
for geo
-graphy.
Just p(l)ay her
what she is oh
em
gee
-owed.

Another fabulous word list from my Shawna. Thanks, Girl, for the unstuckedness. 😉 ❤

HOW CAN YOU BE THIS AWESOME???
You are the BEST at writing about me. 🙂 And you know I luhs me some Google.
Dude. The way you layer and twist meaning as move from line to line is so rad:
“Break her open
and you’ll find her
elbow’s broken
but her” … Her elbow’s broken butter. {heart}
My fave:
“She’s an ogre
in indigo jeans”
I DO mean well. I’ll tell you why later. 🙂
“Jell-O
is the best dressed goo” … Tee hee.
“she’s never been one” … Whoo, boy is THAT the truth!
“graphy” … I LOVE the idea of a grape hi. 🙂 Surely there’s grape bubble-gum involved. Then maybe there’s a little “grapple-hi”/”grappling with hi” in there too. She’s socially challenged, in other words. But she smells good!
“Pay her what she is OMG owed.” … FABU ♥
Just play her. Cuz she’s the BEST. My Best Poetical Friend Ever.
Also, the broken elbow is an extra-awesome funny bone. 🙂 You make me smile, always. All ways.
And holy crap do I need it today. These people came home TERRIBLE. And the girl one – the GIRL one!!! – has a D in PreAlgebra. Same farkin’ teacher Zack had last year. Kill me now.
Right back atcha, baby. I luhs U!!!
Oh, man. That is the worst. Grrrr. Why can’t those mean teachees just let our babies mostly have snack and playground time, no matter how old they get? 😦
Honestly, we would be so much better off if we were still grooming our kids to run a kitchen, raise babies, work a farm, and shoot shitake, instead of for college. It’s an absurd waste of human life.
