I had forgotten the world
As in love with you was I
Now I thank you for the treachery
I’m very much aware of the world now
once a char maid Cinderella
had hard time finding a fella
she crashed a party
thought herself smarty
outplayed Anastasia and Drizella
Usury and surplus value,
barbarity and treachery
do not adorn with love and poetry....
Impossible lies and treachery spewed
Sold dreams of an unreachable reality
In the end deception was the game
It was my heart that was played
Barbarity and treachery
are not things of God...
true resistance of the innocent,
yes, it is a divine thing...!
Called Home
The freshness of dawn
Treachery brought along.
When her life saw death.

Poetic form: Haiku
Form:
take the lot and run
go hide amongst treachery,
take all give nothing
now laws passed to protect you,
only the blameless; guilty.

Hate grows in the garden of treachery,
grass is cyanide green and trees howling haunts of vampires green,
blooms are in danger red,with wicked smiles and killer fragrances that are mean.
666...
the number of the beast
vexillium of soldiers
marching without souls
debauchery, treachery
destroying all they see
look to your left
then to your right
they look like you and me
silver fortress standing tall
golden secrets kept within
arid desert does surround
this perfect imperfection
treachery knocks upon the gate
armed with sweetest offerings
enters forth and loudly sings
a diabolical requiem
There once was a mean man named Gregory
Who was famous for disgusting feats of treachery
Set fire to a cat
While it burned he just sat
As the cat was launched on an airborne trajectory

What would you think, if:
while tailing an orchestra of dinosoars
one secretly turned to you
and invited you into a cave
to watch his favourite act;
the murder of one of his friends
On the rise, as you approach our local Hospital, there's what's left of a homemade 'We 'heart' the NHS' banner.
Only now it's just a pole with a piece of crumpled, red stained sheet falling from it.
The bloodied flag of a battle sadly lost.

A gentlemanly stranger
plays delicious treachery,
behind a deceiving laugh.
Never the desire to love
or take you seriously.
He consumes your hot desire.
Your hero finally here,
blinded by your white passion,
you dive into the spiral.
I'll drink this dark chalice of bitter wine
And let my blood spill on the chosen ground
The blade he holds shall be a slayer of mine
To save you from the treachery I found

A gray cat, stealthy crept,
tall grass his tactic cover.
Was he a Robin Hood?
Nay! More apt a Robin's
demise.
A conqueror to his kin.
A devil to wings that fly.
My truth, may be your
everything? Or, just another
Seducer's lies....?
Treacherous strong winds
Wind untamed, wild and cruel,
Invisible strength.
Leaves swirl, dance, and spin,
Branches groaning under weight,
Nature’s treachery.
Path fraught with danger,
Wind howls, warns of deception,
Unseen perils lurk.
Here within my hand,
you will find all that is me.
Held open so you know,
I hide no treachery.
My fist is not in anger,
but closed against greed.
My handshake is my word.
My hand plants many seeds.

A bomber during history's dark time
World War II, a disgusting crime
We must all be sure so as not repeat this treachery

Delilah, just the name carries
a lot of connotations
A manipulator,scandalous,
and a woman of temptations
Her beauty is skin deep
But her treachery's like an abyss
Lies dwell in her eyes,
There's poison in her kiss
By: J.N.R Dutton
We watch from afar. We wring our hands
seeing the treachery of our governments
who do nothing, as if it is 1941 again.

The treachery of a false friend
is sudden, cutting—always cruel;
his knavery observes no end
and he’ll use you like a drunk fool.
He’ll play you like a violin,
like a puppet on a tight string;
before long he’ll get you to sin
and do a lawless, evil thing.
Longing to possess
belongings of fellowman.
Perfidious unseen want
enrobed in sweetness.
Treachery rooted deep down.
Stealing begins in the heart.

(Matthew 15:19)
(Based on the painting “The Treachery of Images” by René Magritte)
If you label symbols traitors
Since they’re only indicators
Rather than the actual things they signify,
Then you’re logically unable
To affirm your very label
Is a truth and not a metaphoric lie.
