Writing is like cooking, if you spill something, you should make it look like part of the act.

sisters

in my writing class we have been working on poetry... so i have reworked one of mine.

Sisters
Lexi Lee

I love my sister
But when I was 8 and she 2
I would make the bargain
For a cheap penny or two

When I was 8 and she 2
She stole everyone’s heart
For a cheap penny or two
And left me with the ponies and dolls

She stole everyone’s heart
From the guys who came around
And left me with the ponies and dolls
Too suffer the most

The guys who came around
And made you cry
Too suffer the most
Only I can do that

He made you cry
I will beat that guy
Only I can do that
And break his nose

I will beat that guy
My little sister
And break his nose
Together we’ll laugh and cry

My little sister
I would make the bargain
Together we’ll laugh and cry
I love my little sister
