A Smile in the Dark



No camera click
No lipstick

No vote to catch
or image to match

No knee-jerk action
or reflex spasm

No 'cheese' please
on bended knee

A smile in the dark
comes straight from the heart

To tell a quiet truth
to ease the night's tight tooth

Without art --
a smile in the dark
