Girls Coming Home in Their Cars
Girls Coming Home in Their Cars - meaning Summary
Evening Voyeuristic Observation
A speaker watches women arriving in cars and catalogs dresses, car colors and legs. He ranks their attractiveness, fixating on the girl in the blue dress whose underwear he nearly glimpses. The poem compresses a brief, routine evening moment into a voyeuristic inventory, turning ordinary suburban time into a small, intense scene of desire and memory centered on bodily observation at 5:35 p.m.
Read Complete AnalysesThe girls are coming home in their cars and I sit by the window and watch. There's a girl in a red dress driving a white car there's a girl in a blue dress driving a blue car there's a girl in a pink dress driving a red car as the girl in the red dress gets out of the white car I look at her legs as the girl in the blue dress gets out of the blue car I look at her legs as the girl in the pink dress gets out of the red car I look at her legs the girl in the red dress who gets out of the white car has the best legs the girl in the pink dress who gets out of the red car has medium legs but I keep remembering the girl in the blue dress who got out of the blue car. I almost saw her panties you don't know how exciting life can get around here at 5.35 p.m.
