The Shark (79 of 365)

Day 79 of the 365 day poem challenge.

Word of the day periphrastic meaning: "( of speech or writing) indirect and circumlocutory."

The Shark 

Jack of all trades
Gift to humanity 
Sales person extraordinaire 
The sweet music continues
Like a biting sticky balm
The trawl of periphrastic verbosity 
Wags it's ugly tail

Sunshine out their arse
Glory be to them
Saviour of my soul
Sloppy reptile lines on top 
Of grey suits 
Digging down to the refuse
Shovelling it away like coal

Paragon of the people
Master of the world
Knower of all
Powder keg explodes 
Word vomit sticks to the floor
Verbal diarrhoea both stings 
And caresses ears 
Like a poison draught for youth.
