Cigarette

Saturday, June 19th, 2010

Accoutrement to your frown or smile,
Limply dangles in dejection, firmly hailing in assertion,
A Freudian fate for the early weaned,
doubles as baton if either creativity or crisis demand it
and aids in the prevention of undue post-coitus dally,
essential to both Mersault and Meursault,
convenient currency in certain circles or as a five-minute hourglass
stylishly accessorizing your meal, coffee and conversation,
the shaft allows proxy kisses with men, women, strangers and relatives,
the tip customizes furniture and upholstery;
this densely packed contrary whistle, flicked carelessly with thumb
or precisely with forefinger
is best in morning, worst when sick.
