Pocket Frown

I have this pocket frown
That I keep around 
Just in case I'm in a place
Where things head quickly South

I pull it out and slip it on 
Over my silly grin
Where it helps to rearrange 
Any cheerful mood that I am in

Because life is not all giggles 
With a face full of shiny teeth
You sometimes need a break in the middle
To bring on some relief

And while my grin is permanent
I at times can still be found
With it in hand on demand 
My handy pocket frown
