Art of Saying a Lot Yet Saying Nothing At All

An abundance of mimicked truth yet oozing falsehood 
Leaving a dubious ironic emotional attitude 
Simulating a true person’s being hypocritical 
Showed as a soul-less insanely monstrous criminal 

Recognizing ambiguity painted in your unique brilliant colors 
No matter how you curve it, your words still weigh like anchors 
Cunning are your sneaky attempts at a vagueness 
The are of your game is far from being stated as genius 

The illusion of your meaning is not being judged 
It’s the meaning of that illusion I won’t begrudge 
Twisting your morbid stories into enigmatic fables 
Trying to paint yourself as the innocent of all angels 

Conforming naive minds into perceiving what isn’t right 
Leaving one to believe it’s themself that they fight 
Perplexed a complex thought allowing deceit 
Fueling the tellers ever hunger of feeding their conceit 

Yet I do not pass judgement, you bring about that result 
The perceived illusion you brought it’s your fault
Allowing the multi talent of twisting words to your end 
The vagueness in saying a lot by saying nothing, letting no one in

Talking double speak to yourself is a tragic malfeasance. Better one's truth to rule them all (in each individual). Evocative. ~;o]
