Tangled Lies
See the disillusioned weep with despair.
Deeply caught by the bite of steel teeth,
In a trap of tangled lies. Wrapped within,
The warp and weft of intangible truths.
They'd bought into the Grand
Game, this diabolical farce. Wanted change
And instead, were conned.
They were deceived! They cried.
By one who boldly lied, and preyed
Upon their ignorance, divided them to misdirect
Its malevolent intents, from casual view.
Streams of forgiveness, couldn't cleanse,
The thought that they invited the chaos in
When their need deafened them, to reason
So the anguished dried their tears,
But a streak of jealousy slowly appeared,
Hearts turned to stone, and became viscious
Toward those who were more cautious.
Once again they snarl, and once again they scheme,
And once again they plot, as they begin to weave.
