Saboteur
If you're not a well-paid saboteur
You should look into the job
List me as a reference on your resume
And on the day I get the call
I'll tell them all about your
Inability to accept responsibility
And anti-social personality disorder
Never met a man so talented at torture
If they worry whether you might cave
Under the pressure of an inborn moral

Saboteur
Gleeful roses turn to sullen churls,
And virgin smiles of shyest brides
Soonest morph into widowed furls;
Sad victims of your ill-bladed tides.
Swearing lovers of staunchest troth
Must sample your bitterest swill too,
And forfeit bonds of grandest worth,
As you gaily gloat like vilest foes do.
Most ardent toilers all hours round
In shady hands fattest gains leave,
Mowed to

Our POTUS has no love for peace
For profit is earned by caprice
No treaty will bind
Donald Trump's mind
Its locked on to greasing the fleece!

saboteur
lying in wait
in the camouflage
of my unsure
intentions
acrid ants of doubt
run amok
in black swarms of
errant motion
fixed wings impaled
by pins of lies
goodbyes
and busted dreams
oh when did I fall
and forget to get up
how far did I go
before I forgot
is she in the pale
reaching into the void
only to find me
adrift
with shame by my side
and

Saboteur
To a completely reasonable decree
The angry onslaught launched in retort:
“You cannot care about me…”
Achieved the goal – direct hit.
In response, you were muted.
So still you might be departed.
Yet I shot again, just to see
If you remained upright.
To my surprise, within moments
You launched your own projectile,
Which smashed with alarming accuracy.
(You’re quite a marksman.)

Best you had,
Now that’s sad.
Well I’m glad.
I’m no fad,
I’m ironclad.
You alright,
Not so bright.
Can’t you fight,
With this spite.
Where’s the might.
Times ago,
Now shadow.
Left me low,
In the snow,
You now owe.
I then die,
When I cry,
To the sky,
Up so high,
When you lie.
Why is she,
More than me?
You love thee,
I disagree.
Lone latchkey.
In this blur,
This you stir,
And occur.
Amateur,
Saboteur.

Saboteur
You lodge that impeccable smile at me
In such a beguiling fashion
Thinking I don't have eyes to see
You're fabricating your passion
It's true I feel your powerful gaze
That takes me to my knees
But this love has seen better days
I'm lost inside the freeze
My love you've cost me of myself
Not wholly but in part
I've put my soul up
