Poems by Aden Lee and Padma, Skylark Press Studio Braces: A Saga | страница 4

Prying foreign objects
Screech, hook, clip
On and off,
Crush,
Suck out saliva,
Goo imprints my mouth–
Oral rape.
V.
Recalcitrant
Refusing to fill the gaps
Of their fallen brothers.
Protruding rebels
Are lassoed by rubber bands.
Chewing during lunch,
A white ring swallowed.
Is it digestible?
Hook on and off
Quickly before they see.
Don’t laugh too hard
Or they’ll fly off!
