Why do you stick your big red tongue, out at me
With jokers face you pull, to taunt me
Grinning with laughter, busting out of your sides
You confuse me with so many messages
You send, back and forth like a boomerang
Made from your chin, carved like a tribal mask
Fostering images of confidence
A' fun loving with joy, telling me to feel at ease
But on sides I see your darkness with jokers tricks
The sharpness of swords you wave
That lie silent hidden with intent
Like t' of the Sumaria, to slice my core unexpected
Why do you stick your big red tongue
Out at me, to gloat on tribal mask
Confusing me with signals you send
That was great. I love how you saw a tongue in this as inspiration. Have a great week.
