Cruizer

He drives around, picking up girlz.
Proudly displaying his emoticon bumpertricker.
His vomitrocious personality,
hidden behind smiley face lie.
The master of snark,
with an old man's easy style.

Try not to look into those grue eyes.
His is a pretend wise with a fake smile.
He'll fill your mind with pretentious smog.
Your heart to clog, with consummating tobacco.
He'll blow smoke up your donkey,
from his corngobbed pipe.

Fifties fedora, a bodacious tie.
Hair colored in black dye, he wears a crisp white shirt.
Disguising inner dirt and devious smile.
Don't be blind, he's not worth a dime.
He'll leave you high and dry, you'll wonder why.
Why did you accept that ride?

Debbie Guzzi's Portmanteaus contest.

Emoticon 
My word... Bumpertricker
Vomitrocious 
Snark
Grue
Smog
My word ....Corngobbed
Bodacious

ooohh, he sounds like someone from a stephen king novel. Great descriptions with portmanteous. I wonder if that P word is now ingrained on my brain forever, or if I will forget it a year from now when I want to use it in a sentence!! Sure enjoyed this one. Congrats to you.

Okay, Richard, if this doesn't win, it should. Absolutely delightful. I love the colorful descriptions. Kinda reminded me of Dr. Seuss, 'You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch'.
