So Much Smut Rondel

You may see me as so much smut,
in my mouth lies the hardest stone. 
A single bite straight to the bone,
rotting diamond teeth will still cut.

I’ve got this age-resistant strut,
ninety proof that I walk alone.
You may see me as so much smut,
in my mouth lies the hardest stone. 

Filled with such polished etiquette 
the sick properties held are known.
There are things I haven’t outgrown.
With all four ‘C’s keep the door shut,
you may see me as so much smut.
