Trickster

Saffron  robes, long hair
A shoulder bag and a pouch
Of dirty dust which
He calls sacred is all that
Into this cheat’s making goes

A woman lonely
And worried is his sure prey
Gold bangles of hers
Are  his,  as she falls to  his 
Talk of foolproof  remedies.

Oh this is great! Congrats on the win I really enjoyed this! When I first saw the contest some kind of wizard came to mind now I am glad I did not pursue it for it would have come up short in comparison to this!
