Charm by Arman
Arman Hoque 1977 (Winnipeg)
Charm
Looks can be deceitful, but a kiss is just as sweet;
The intent may be deceitful ; still it sweeps you off your feet.
Charm is a demon in your head,
Permeating most everywhere, most especially your bed.
There’s nothing quite as alluring, as sleep.
It removes your worries while it keeps you off your feet.
Charm is an accomplishment,
Every teenage boy knows true.
To those beyond those years, we fight it but it’s true.
