Ambush Archer

You see them, yet you do not, Their power lies in their plot, Deceivers hidden in plain view, To undermine and cheat you. Their stunning rise to power, Owed to their "trap and devour". Amazing unfaithfulness, To the Lord of righteousness! With bows of dishonesty, They devise a strategy. With arrows of lying tongue, The deceivers' trap is sprung. Training themselves to tell lies, Disguising themselves as allies, Designing their trap to surprise, Their victims suffer demise. "Fires of affliction await! They cannot resist My bait! They are always telling lies! So, My deadly arrow flies! They don't listen to My voice. I'm left with only one choice. Being unable to repent, I spring My trap of judgment! I am hidden in plain sight. I see in both dark and light. You think you can deceive Me? The Ambush Archer is Me!"
