White Collar

Doing work white collar job but dirt underneath,
  Fragrance with scent on shirt but smell under me,
  Flourished outside but rotten inside,
  Complete man I'm outside but incomplete
  Through heart.
  Complex complicated compliance charm I lock,
  But understandable through one key,
  Folded in four sides, but no side edge seen to unveil.
  Cover with damp of lies and no gas is penetrating in it.
  I got white collar smile but smirk underneath.

This is an interesting and well written poem. I am imagining it as the introduction to a detective movie. Thank you for it.

Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
