“pretty glass frames”

by Sofia Wasserman

Pretty glass frames view pretty desperate gestures  

My pretty glass frames watch the light bounce off her spectacles 

Her pretty glass frames appreciate the subtle curve to my lashes 

But I ignore these pretty glass frames to seek dark tinted panels 

The dark tinted panels always filter out my pretty bloodstained beauty
