A Garish Smile

He's that guy that slays you,
    always charming, ready &
       eager to lend a helping hand,
  a garish smile tucked in his hip pocket  --
    he's your friendly next door neighbor, 
         the quintessential serial killer

I'm glad you think so, I got Soup mail from someone who will remain unnamed, saying it was 'pretty harsh', I wrote it so it'd be open to interpretation either way. Happy you got it!
