Smelling mouth
"smelling mouth they say,
'kills an african chief's kaftan".
i had not understood this saying
until it haunted my nostrils.
i met this young lad who looks exciting,
his face smoothened like a barber's mirrow,
his jeans pant giving him a befitting feazure
as his plumppy buttocks gave way for cool admiration,
i looked and searched my creativity
to pick and gain an attention from him.
finally,i won,
for he came-by to lay "the foundation brick".
as he came to arms lenght,
my restivity bursted out a greeting-GOOD MORNING",
and he responded in a mimical tone that made me recieved the mortuary in him.
{expensive bucal cavity}; shaping his mouth to pronounce "good",
his zero-formed lips poured me the uria in the indian laboratory.
his handsomeness vanished instantly.
there and then
i rebuffed my action ab initio.
maybe,
i smell their mouth
before admitting them
