First prompt


First you need patience

and a set of wide eyes

to look over the latent

disregard for other’s lives

 

Then you need teeth

enough to fill a grin

better make them shiny too

your boss loves his reflection

 

Third you’ll need a voice

but it doesn’t have to speak

one that just sounds pretty

and is able to repeat

 

You’ll have to sell your ears

for a firm handshake

you wont get paid to listen

so there is no time to waste

 

Last of all you’ll need a suit

and bathtubs of money

and a wife to come home to

that will lie and call you honey
