Sullen Sallow Callous Callow

Sullen, sallow, callous, callow
Sullen, sallow, callous, callow

If you sulk all the time
As though sad thoughts you are mullin’
You’re sullen

If you look unhealthy
If your skin’s a sickly yellow
You’re sallow

If you’re cruel and insensitive
And act with malice
You’re callous

If you’re a young and naïve
And inexperienced fellow
You’re callow

...and, when you're perpetually young, hypersensitive, angsty, and deathly pale...
you're a Cullen.
