(The devious job of currying favour).
These are clever, clever men
These are clever, clever men
and we must choose, between
those who pour a cat’s saucer
of coddled threats
dressed up as promises
that we might naively lap
or others, who
offer fellatio with a shark,
slithering between our lips
leprous barbed poison
to sting our lips,
harpoons that reel us in,
to riddle our guts
through a colander of lies.
