I read this poem several times but the last line Â… I still donÂ’t get it.Originally posted by peebrain:Thinking ahead, I bought myself a golden
ticket, an original idea, walked and
got in line like the rest, beholdened
to a subscription letter in my hand.
In front, the women, no -- ruddy giggly girls
dither in the queue for one of your kisses,
hardly aware that I've quietly reversed
back in line, a once-removed missus.
I don't mind (I lie) if you've had ten, twenty,
even a hundred (God forbid!) since then.
I've had my share, dismissed others easily
from a line not unlike this. Sweet chameleon,
so what if it ends where the sun doesn't shine?
Despite the odds, I wish I were last in your line.
Hmm. I am not if I should be happy for the narrator but that is a very interesting perspective.Originally posted by peebrain:So when the narrator says, "Despite the odds, I wish I were last in your line", she's hoping her love will eventually take her back, effectively "stopping" the line.
And she, as the last person in the queue, will end up with her love, happily ever after.
