The Deceiver

The Deceiver

Coward!
Did you really believe
you would get away with this?
You deceived people who
had known you all your life.
(Or had they?)
You ripped off a widow
to the tune of
several thousand dollars.
You employed your cunning,
saying ever so innocently,
"I couldn't find a job today."
All the while
cleaning your fishing gear.
You think you won the game
and that others lost.
Your loveless heart refuses
to see what a
miserable bastard
you have become.
