mineral water

"impurity"

A businessman embodied by attire
exudes an aura of authority.
His nestled tie proves he is more than man,
a paragon of principles pristine.
But as he lips a crisp sip from a bottle
and clears his throat of what the humans breathe,
he hides what all the lipsticked mannequins
who peer through shaded lenses don't perceive:
the drugs he's capped within his perfect pocket,
the secret sin he's buttoned up his sleeves.
