Counterweight Poem by Jack Galmitz

Counterweight

Rating: 4.0

Whether the cost
is greater
than the gain
is what's decisive.
A trickle of loosened
water carries off some
grains of sand,
which in the end
slows it down.

A boy in a classroom
puts his glasses down
and summons the courage
to speak to the girl
he's been watching
for a year.
Whether she accepts
him will determine
his future
