NIGHT SMILE


Many cars were arriving at the heart of the city
I watched it all on an empty TV, disintegrating in poverty
Jesus was speaking inside my heart
Jesus only lives inside hearts because science rightfully put him there where
he Belongs and lives in peace
And speaks to the only organ that is fit for his messages
But I was not in peace, you see
As I watched all of you on my mental screen
Psychologically these awful judgmental words came to me:

I can smell the aroma of vanity from the dirty black box

You are sadly limitless
Beauty fixed many times all for your perception of a dull society that buys your
glory
And let us not forget your purses
Beloved handbags
Where you keep abundant money which allows for the pursuit of jewellery
Hardwired machines of vanity

Slow depth
Perhaps no depth
Slow warmth
Perhaps no warmth
There may be nothing
Just lipstick
Just a night smile
If I were in a good position, I would refute you, I would refuse you and the
Hopelessness that comes with
Your vileness

Just a night smile
If I were in a good position, I would refute you, I would refuse you and the
Hopelessness that comes with
Your vileness

There may be nothing
Just lipstick
Just a night smile
If I were in a good position, I would refute you, I would refuse you and the
Hopelessness that comes with
Your vileness
