As Girls Do

by Cindy Weil with contributors.

We Talked as Girls Do

We talked as Girls do -
Fond, and late -
We speculated fair, on every subject, but the Grave -
Of ours, none affair -

We handled Destinies, as cool -
As we - Disposers - be -
And God, a Quiet Party
To our Authority -

But fondest, dwelt upon Ourself
As we eventual - be -
When Girls to Women, softly raised
We - occupy - Degree -

We parted with a contract
To cherish, and to write
But Heaven made both, impossible
Before another night.
