Betrayal Demands An Audience

Betrayal Demands An Audience

Pretty smiles
dressed in camouflage
full in view but hidden
talking sincerity
to silent attentive listeners.

Impressive Actor
his stage now set
for betrayal demands an audience
he's inspired from arising cheers
see, his deceitful decorations near.

And when found out
he's drawn them in
his performance was just to win
his stage impressive
and the Actor glorious
for the betrayal demands an audience.

Thank you Barry for the comment, that was very kind. l wasn't too sure about posting at first as l wrote the poem very quickly and wondered if it looked finished but when l typed it out l was pleased with it. Just one typo though on line 8, should say'an' instead of 'and'.But still very pleased with this one. take care. Jackie
