I was briefly glancing at criminal physiognomy, and I think maybe there is something interesting there under the surface maybe. Now it has been noted.
I'm having a hard time connecting these two sentences to your thread title.
An elaboration would be welcomed, though read with hesitance.
An eyebrow raised, or two, or a flat forehead too.
So don't feel as though you need to justify your choices here.
But it would be warranted to take the thread and shape it out;
that is, if you wanted more of it. Did you?
Maybe fashion a string stick figure, a cat's cradle, a witch's broom.
It's a mild request.
Not to say I'm not curious, but with a temperament most tame.
Just can tell from looking at him that he was a rascal: more coming soon from the forgotten sciences department.
On all levels except physical, I am a wolf.
I am like a saucy, very masculine bacteriophage in the face.
CHOP 'EM
A man of countenance angry or harsh
Is rare seldom gentle or kind
Although exception is the rule
There are faces that always smile
And some that do betray
Rounded or angular, of general kind
Do of sort a character build.
A thousand men who bludgeon girls
Their biometrics analyzed and scanned
Their DNA expressions changed
By tempest and hardship given by sheaves
Why do they look like they feel so mad?
So the general types will surely yield
First the sad same bud, then fruit
And an unpopular science too powerful
To be ignored and pushed away
Is born, and will be hidden from the slaves
Low hanging fruit in brutal mitts
But I can tell you from a woman's smile
A wealth of riches that winds for miles
I think for sure there is something there
That was in the minds of when so long ago
That a lion's eyes meant a courageous heart
Where alchemy meets chemistry
An ai scans an endless database
Accurately
I can say in moments rare and strange
When minerals made my blood run hot
And the sound was pumped in by the pound
And there was a bit of this and that
Yo: that was not insomnia
That was my fucking one and only life
That oh yes, yes, there is a cover on this book
Spun and bound and social too
And regardless of how you read it
It is the way that is
Read
If cover to cover or just flipped right through
And although different squirrelly punums
Or porcine blubbering jowls
Paint a different sort of life
And attract each their own sort of woe
I do believe there is something there that shines and is worth
What, I cannot say
As it is glitters and is not gold
But may perhaps be a jewel? Or a pixel?
I may never know.
Another well intended mouse on your doorstep.
The study of criminal physiognomy
Is a noble pursuit, it's said,
For it seeks to understand
The features of the criminal man,
And from this knowledge, justice gains
A tool to better apprehend
The lawless and the malevolent,
To keep our streets and homes safe from harm.
By studying the face and form
Of those who've proven themselves untamed,
We gain insight into the mind
That drives their deeds, and thus may find
A way to better understand
The motivations of the criminal,
And with this knowledge, better thwart
Their plans and keep the peace throughout.
So let us celebrate the art
Of criminal physiognomy,
And praise the scientists who've honed
This discipline, and through it shown
The value of this noble field,
In helping us to understand
The workings of the criminal mind,
And thus to keep our world more kind.
