To Re-emerge When The Winds Settle

Why would anyone need another,
Who speaks from both sides of their mouth...
And runs to hide,
At the first sign of opposition.
Only to re-emerge when the winds settle.
And a predicted storm has moved on!

It is difficult to perceive someone like this,
To be in anyone's corner.
And to say they can be relied upon,
To watch someone's back...
Or thought of to be one accountable like that,
Is laughable.
