WAR IS KIND: 30 by STEPHEN CRANE

Poet Analysis

First Line: AH, GOD, THE WAY YOUR LITTLE FINGER MOVED
Last Line: BECAUSE OF THE WAY A LITTLE FINGER MOVED.

AH, God, the way your little finger moved
As you thrust a bare arm backward
And made play with your hair
And a comb a silly gilt comb
Ah, God -- that I should suffer
Because of the way a little finger moved.
