Scoundrel

You swagger in with a crooked grin,

Twisting truths, where to begin?

Hands in pockets, eyes that scheme,

A master of the selfish dream.

You charm, you lie, you stab, you shove,

No care for others, just self-love.

Promises broken, trust you betray,

You dance in shadows, lead hearts astray.

A fleeting smile, a venomous tongue,

Spreading discord wherever you’ve clung.

Arrogant fool, yet blind to shame,

A scoundrel’s crown is your only claim
