FOR A SUCKER'S SMILE


For describing features of the face
With a half broken bottle of gin
You could only stare
And flinch back away
But you heard the mumbled mercy
Flesh raped by delving into places
Smitten by decay
Another mewling prey

You smiled
About to stub your cigarette out
But heartily
Joined the party

The burning butt in your hand
The other keeping the head bent

Then you scrub begging lips off with care
Slightly move avoiding the spat blood
Enjoy like a funfair
That can light you up
You take your time in there
And don't fuck it up

I smile
Take out one more fag to light
And heartily
Join the party
