Golden opportunity

The consistency of mystery
Drenched in it's simplicity 
Wrought with what would seem to be
To our participants complacency 
For a golden opportunity 
A trick our minds eye think they see
If not thought through quite logically
A flim-flam conjured carefully
Too easy to take willingly
For those grasping at something free
Fruit hanging low on fabled tree
So true it is too good to be
To test human morality
When seeking answers desperately 
In a place that's not quite fair.
