Smile, and never mind the flaws
Reveal the broke, serrate egdes
Of your finely buttered teeth
You don't need a perfect sphere
Before you can truly smile

What is perfect but curved lips
That bears down on tongue divide
And the glow in star-spangled eyes
The issue is not in the defects
But that many forget to smile
