Errant Thoughts

   The game was always the same: girls taller than me, blonder than me; girls chosen first, first before me. Laughter and talking melding into a constant din; the din rising and falling as each girl was chosen.

   And at last I was chosen, last as always, at the end, unheard, unseen, unwanted.
