Anecdote
of learned behavior
—serving self
(Dreamsleep: February, 2021)
A world where
Reading between lines
Is a child’s play.
To have it all
Just can’t be a winner
But a grandmaster.
Lost within deception, retorted intent, ending among the granite saddened with conscience stricken decent
Form:
Snythetic fule
trubines
nuckear engery.
Metephoric field,
A deception,
Illisionist.
Disaster,
Stranger,
Romance.
HYPOCRISY
Hypocrisy:
The gates of deception
Leading
Into the inferno of
Betrayal!

Hidden yet rugged
At the bottom of the world
Cool water flowing
High above Hell’s barren gates
High above ringed deception
Deception comes richly,
new lies in its purse
Old wolves on the mountaintop
—Gideon’s curse
(Dreamsleep: February, 2021)
humiliation followed deception
shattered dreams and broken heart
you gave your soul and more
AP: Honorable Mention 2021
The first touch of night
Marks the eastern horizon
I've spent the whole day
Trying not to remember
The skill of your deception
A story
Of love
Begins with an end
Deception
Lies
Even words…
Cannot mend
What’s done
Is done
You can no longer
Look back
your eyes betrayed you
it was there in the fine print
chance another look

Where deception
is granted a daily reception
Even before the press conference's
cursed inception
By Imran Ahmed
The dust clings to her skin
a stain not easily erased.
She holds
a master’s degree
in the art of deception.
Music of deception plays loud
Mask flips on the faces of crowd
In sly chameleon celebration
I dance with me in seclusion.
devil’s gift
fruit of deception....
schemer’s forte

Piously sitting
In saintly genuflection,
Faithfully waiting:
Sage, long legs, prayer-like bent:
Waiting for prey to pass by:-
Clowns in Washington
Performing in tainted masks
Fraud and deception
Reflection lights the day
Deception veils the way
Exception tempts astray
Perception bends the play
Reception fades to grey
The mouth of deception Devil's verses recites simulating the voice of angels!

False crown with pride wears
On vanity's throne she sits
Hypocrisy reigns!

Naïve minds can barely perceive
The tricks that reside up a sleeve
Surgery plastic
Achieves the fantastic
Deception men want to believe
The Lies about tomorrow,
define all truth today
Deceived by joy and sorrow
—all promise gone astray
(Las Vegas Nevada- January, 2017)
You walk around wearing second hand crowns
Thinking second hand thoughts
Battles second hand fought
Testaments rooted in foundational rot
Columbus despised local folk
Like Trump, he fibbed as he spoke
But truth be told
He wanted their gold
And you know that man ended up broke
How minuscule you may be
Or timid - doesn't matter
Survival depends on the
Art of deception
