    I don't know if I'll bother posting too many, but here's just a random sonnet with an ABAB rhyme scheme. Dedicated to all those in our population with no "Jimmony Cricket."

    Sociopathic Stranger

    From afar you notice him there alone,
    a plastered smile lies on a sunless face.
    That forgiving mask shows a sin attoned,
    but that in the eye bids a cold embraced.

    Your hand you offer to which he does shake;
    his grasp is warm and shows nothing of fear.
    You catch glimpse of a grin that yearns to break,
    icey eyes that long for a focused leer.

    As you walk away did you see perchance?
    A malevolent smirk that those lips fly?
    Frozen conscience and lament breathe a trance;
    that benevolence was none but a guise.
