Best Poems Written by Anabelle Lee

Brace

sew beads on your lips
add crystals so your eyes
won't make
don't use a silver wire, 
bronze looks better around
tie that bow shape
into one straight grim
you can express yourself
in quiet,
clandestine grip
tighten everything shut
use a clear polish
to coat, to avoid rusting that
cheap
facade
I recommend a round-nose pliers
to clasp
it all together,
Keep that firm
and pretty
let the stones dangle in the middle
of war.
