The Deception

The ropes you think to have mastered
is nothing but a minor part

A clumsy stroke on a life's canvas
of the sustained and intricate art

What need were to be duplicitous
when at the helm you held the rein

The purpose for false pretenses
and innocent ignorance try and feign

Consume you would in your own fury
for the failed deceitful plot

The past association often envied
now would prove the cardinal blot
