Ways of the Wicked

There's wickedness all about looking to devour to & fro Sometimes it comes with a mask acting nice putting on airs like a show Deceit is tricky laying low hiding in plain sight within the crease In the fold of deception are many clothes stripping you of happiness & your peace Sin has many faces equipped with smiles seeking to drag you to its hell At times it's so convincing with its tales that doesn't give or show a tell I show & tell you of its ways for I've studied its nature like a class It looks to mold you in its likeness & keep you in place like a cast We're moving fast toward a climax, but you know that its pleasures never last If it comes with an offer just duck your head & catch the next one like a pass
