What She Hid

a poem by Joshua Brown
 
 
I saw a girl
With a book
On a train
 
And I dared
To see
What she read
 
I saw her hair
Sloppy ponytail
And whisping shimmers in the sunrise.
 
And I dared
To see
What she read
 
I saw her shoulders
Loose but alert
Facing the waking city
 
And I dared
To see
What she read
 
I saw her shoes
Clean white
Ankle bared sprinters
 
And I dared
To see
What she read
 
I saw a girl
With a mask
On a train
 
And I dared
To see
What she hid.
