Cloaked In Deceit and Hidden In Darkened Shrouds

Cloaked In Deceit And Hidden In Darkened Shrouds I am done with giving to those that deceive casting pearls to those that do not believe. Why join with pretenders seeking a gold crown when all they desire is to take you down? Poetry is not game that some make it to be not the glory of look all, how pretty is me. So much more than some can ever dare to find its hearts of deep soul and generous giving mind. So as some walk in pride upon plastic clouds cloaked in deceit and hidden in darkened shrouds. Consider those that humbly dare to bear it all with no demands to be given the golden ball. Yes, this world rewards such as those that plot against those truly sincere and demanding not. Robert J. Lindley Sonnet L10,11,12.
