he said the world is round
she said well, the next world will be flat
after much contemplation
they agreed to disagree

  1. Dear Sonya,

    Thank you for this poem. For me, a power of this poem is the she who proclaims, somewhat matter of factly, that she is creating (or, at least, commenting on) a new world.

    All good wishes,

    robert
