Linda Alice Fowler Poet Rhyme

Man of Means

Oh, yes. A man of means.
Harsh, cold creature
Punctured smile
Selfish demon
Dark fills his genes

Oh, yes. A man of means.
Tongue like an asp
Punctured words
Words like a bee
Meaning that stings

Oh, yes. A man of means.
Hands like a hawk
Punctured grasp
Grasp of a kite
Contented, preens

Oh, yes. A man of means.
Sharp as a shark
Punctured veins
Veins running red
The worst of fiends.

Oh, yes. A man of means.
Force of a mamba
Punctured gasp
Gasping for air
Man of no miens.
