An offer I can refuse
Angling, but not hooked
The tide pushes seaward
Nothing was overlooked
—
The kindness of strangers
Is a spider’s wet dream
Surrounded by strings
Just a conman’s scheme
—
A kaleidoscope of hope
Dangling a specter
Wistful and hypnotic
Be weary of the nectar
—
Never trust a milky sky
Or a wind that whispers names
Familiarity is the upper hand
An alt reality of mind games
—
Beguiling and dangerous
Unleashing waves of insistence
Designer guilt generously applied
Targeting any smart resistance
—
Once upon a time of truthiness
Before the war over my dollar
To decipher the fine print
Needn’t require a legal scholar
