Charmer Boys




Those unfortunate (bastard) wild boys,

trained too early

and too easily

that their goods were in demand

that they could barter through life

on looks and loving

 

Charm is their first line of defense

Permanently on offense

(still not in control)

taking from others

as was done to them

The original biological weapon.

  

This talent for assessing need

and weakness

This dark discernment

working towards neither's good,



A call to charms


Playing that designated role

imprinted too young

too mightily

Be what they need

Swallow yourself whole

Manipulation is power

or a passable facsimile thereof



You exert bravado

so we would never imagine

the rift within
