It could be all-American
The value the culture puts on the smile.
Grin and you’ll get it.
Just what you want when you vet it.
No need to speak just flash the bright whites
those teeth
crinkle the eyes just so
warmth power glow
yet in another country
they feel auto distrust
back away like you’re a germ
what is it you want
what those extrovert business men don’t know
is when that smile is pretend
we all know
it has to come from with in,
without pretense
beautiful inside and project out
that’s who has the power.
