Pulchritudinous looks, unscrupulous ways hook 
Junoesque one apart, pneumatic in mouthpart

Those coconut-like callipygian haunts cull
Leave alone howling wolves, despite being ourselves!...

Future technology is for the good of mankind
But can be manipulated by unscrupulous minds
Must remain skeptical
Some are unethical
Watch for these dudes that operate below the line...

Thoughts kept corralled, wear your brand,
But once shared, they pasture on open range
Becoming vulnerable to any unscrupulous cowboy 
Possessing a running iron;

Who is the well known visitor forgetting
What a scandalous bit of gossip it would be?
Where privacy is not always very private
When the unscrupulous are so quick to see
Why not some filthy lucre just for me?

Like monkeys, 

They wreck silence of the kingdom 

Really unscrupulous and mend no love 

In the black stricken caves lies their mind 

All venture in sour sweets 

And always point in vengeance home 

Where shadows have shadows …...

Unscrupulous ties of marriage by knives,
And a face that begot the sun,
All time and fate doth mingle late
Till resting sorrow come,

The mind
Once stretched
And muddled
And tetched,
Shall in its mourning see
That in the end, we all as one
Will in our coffins be....

I ask this of you
Never to trifle with my affections
My precious little heart can't hold it
For a caprice it's not built
It's banks are full to the brim
and the walls are but weak
Please do not break my little heart
There's not even one unscrupulous bone in me
If you do not fancy me, let me be gone...

Buoyant orange flames leap like a leopard stalking the sun. Posthumously, the mountain of smoke and ash collapsing on itself, selfishly stomping out joy, but for the Aurora Borealis, the joykill of skullduggery. Her light like song notes, tra-la-la-ing. Her beauty, unscrupulous, to the roaring volcanic beast.

emeralds and pinks
disclosing
phantasm peaks
valleys of despair

The panderer's grandiose smitten scheme
spectacular invention those calibrated scenes,
gradation of movement in unhurried steps
resistance ineffectual fallen to debt...

Marvelously sculptured are unscrupulous ideas,
lavishly displayed within bubbled galleria
tempted to chance overwhelming desire,
dissapating blazon our spiritual fire...

Corruption and greed,is not our human nature,
more appropriate are unjust errant ventures......

Lies masqueraded as truth,
Unscrupulous, and uncouth,
Deceit in love,
Deceit of money,
Deceit with trust,
Deceit with facts,
Vaporous semi-truths,
Held as solid gospel,
The twists of truths,
Serving for one a selfish use
But for the victim of these falsehoods,
A form of deep abuse,

Borrow things, no intent to return,
Cheating others, let them burn!
How low can one go?
For even but a dime,
Will puzzle me,
Til the end of time....
