Issac's servant trying the bracelet on Rebecca's arm
Benjamin West ~ 1775
I curl up, make myself smaller, try to disappear
entirely. Wrapped in silence, I slide my bracelet that reads 'mentally
disoriented' around and around my wrist. Suzzane Collins
Procrastination is the best action against putting an
ankle bracelet on future. Mehmet Murat lldan
She was so evidently the victim of the civilization which
had produced her, that the links of her bracelet seemed like manacles chaining
her to her fate.
Edith Wharton
Our domestic Napoleons, too many of them, give flattery,
bonnets and bracelets to women, and everything else but - justice ... Fanny
Fern
Good memories are like charms...Each is special. You
collect them, one by one, until one day you look back and discover they make a
long, colorful bracelet. James Patterson
Posted an abstract bracelet poem about being in service to my trespasses of apathy...Thanks for having a needed prompt...
ReplyDeleteGreat prompt for a sevenling... and now I'm almost on track despite starting late. My 6th poem so far.
ReplyDeletewell Susie, hope I didn't stray too many universes away from your prompt ~
ReplyDeleteI just added an 's' to the prompt and ran with a kyrielle sonnet. I am really trying to experiment with different poetry forms and styles while I have some Easter holidays to squander. Next week will probably be a different story.
ReplyDeleteGood one, Susie! Thank you.

ReplyDeleteSusie (oops!) would. It was a fun write, thank you.

This revived a special memory. I combined it with the dVerse sevenlings prompt.
ReplyDeleteThis one took me to an unexpected place that I needed to go. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI wrote a very ambivalent bracelet poem today, combined with the Poetic Asides prompt, Urban ____. There are beautiful things I want to say about cities and about my city, but I'm not feeling those things at the moment. Maybe some of it is just the weather!
