i'm something you can't see,
i'm not just a picture,
taken in just the right light
when the shutter mixed so nice with the aperture.

i'm more than the words
people repeat about me,
i'm no *******
their views are just tainted.

no, not what you see on the outside is me
there's something more
if you'de take a second you could see.

not quite a man, but
no longer a boy,
let me in your sheets
to substitute for your toys,
no i'm not just a *****,
though i don't want a fetus,
if you have a baby
i'll be the father with joy.

i'm not just a smile
there are more teeth in the back
fighting decay with strings
i scoop out the plaque
of my life.
