Smirk
In our maniacal world madness cosplay nativity.
When sanctuary is cynical take cyanide outside in
a synchronized social suicide.
Life at your disposal realize life is disposable.
Lacking eye warble, below-zero countertop marble.
Stumble over the five o'clock Hobble.
Humble, Crumpled up macro-cookie crumble.
Spade shovel buried down transient mumble.
Blood musk parfume; false whale entrails.
Innards inward into inferior interior

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

I Saw the Smirk and I Knew
I am supposed to always be kind, nice, sweet.
But sometimes my werewolf gorilla she-wolf comes out.
I have to tamp her down, and pretend she is not ready to
Bite off a child’s leg or better yet devour his head.
Today in the lunchroom was one of those times
When a particularly irritating child threw something
past six tables into

If You Feel the Need To Smirk
If you feel a need to smirk,
You can't go past a Merc,
One that is fully electric,
Or at least a hybrid, so you won't feel a jerk,
When cheap petrol is all talk.
Engineered with you in mind,
For peace of mind,
They leave others behind.
With standard features you won't believe,
At prices you can quote with some relief,
As

Fiery Smirk Smote - Day 14
bleeding blushes ooze
damping dessicated drool
punctured passion puke
nauseating nocturnal nude
felon feelings fostered
gaunt gazes murdered
fiery smirk smote
undaunted gift grown
on fervent flow
salient soil pulsed
leering lanky lust
foaming feelings gulped
on vying Valentine
gaunt gazes dine.

Better Enemy
There is no better enemy than ones’ loving family and friends
For it is they who know all the ifs' and where your troubles begin
No need to look outward but to only look within
The company of those that surprisingly come to mind
They who come around you either often or all the time
They say they’ll support and

Smirk
Light rest its head within my arms
and with dimmed gasp

And in the dark
all that is left is feeling
and beauty
lives
in the dark

That Smirk
That smirk
an upturned challenge
or warning
climb – it says
ascend
rung upon rung
to the top
to wonder
of other ladders
other smirks
reflect
on that subtle hint
of warning.

A Smirk
Think I've finally figured out people and all their quirks
Not to say I'm immune from how this strange world works
Actually, I'm a prime example
Of common sense, made a shamble
Why can't we go through each day with a dirty big smirk
