Notes About The Poem

For "Stones" poetry contest

SOME GIRLS

RUBY TUESDAY and SUSIE Q are like WILD HORSES 
But I've got those two HONKY TONK WOMEN UNDER MY THUMB 
ANGIE, the girl with FAR AWAY EYES has a HEART OF STONE 
But PAINT IT BLACK, MOTHER'S LITTLE HELPER isn't no angel 
SHE'S SO COLD that when I play with her, I PLAY WITH FIRE 
She's a TUMBLIN DICE that left me flat and SHATTERED 
Just because I told her- "YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WANT YOU WANT" 
It might be JUST MY IMAGINATION, but SOME GIRLS, like her... 
are BEASTS OF BURDEN and OUT OF CONTROL. 
Those ROLLING STONES are just so SAD, SAD, SAD

This one's a clever and fun ride—love how you weaved all those Rolling Stones song titles into a smooth, storytelling flow. Feels like a jukebox of heartbreak and sass, with a cheeky wink. Nice work, Charles!

Congratulations on another rocken win! I used to love the Stones, and the song Some Girl's. I love Mic's southern drawl and rhythmic music. One more..."Sympathy for the Devil" should've been in the list...

How creative and imaginative --- and brutally depicted, just like those phony goons who sang those songs, Charlie! ~ Candy Girl and Sherry Baby
