Elegant smiles concealing bitter tongues, but it's all in fun
An image of your inner self can't be undone
Seething words among the frigid birds of diligence reek of ignorance
and a longing to be one of the brood
Encased in spiny shells with blackened pearls and tales to tell
lying in wait for any misfortune to befall you
From the festering mouths of impudence
spews the bitterness of intolerance
Revealing a lack of veracity
and those that see grow wise
Holed up inside your guilty world of things absurd
where simple words can end the life you live
Curious stares of gluttonous fools misguided by the herd
I am what you see, yet you can't see that is me
From the cankerous maw spitting ignorance
reflecting emotional indigence
Revealing a stock of stupidity
swelling with vicious lies
They've not the gift of giving or a lucid sense of life
only manicures and tanning beds will satisfy
Unbeknownst to those encrusted by the fold
Immunity from ridicule is non negotiable
From the festering mouths of impudence
spews the bitterness of intolerance
Revealing a lack of veracity
and those that see grow wise
