Today's Interview
Today's Interview (7,9)
As today, could be the day
for which tomorrow is hinged upon
My strategic interview
is more for me, than it is, for you
To compete with this woman
of confident, manipulation
She's a worthy opponent
of booby-traps; set, in translation
Raising questions, seeking truth
Interviewers, judging my response
I keep sweeping for land-mines
of deception placed, so nonchalant
Anticipated questions
Responding fluent, to run the floor
for my worthy opponent
Merely tripped and fell, upon her sword
