A friend indeed,
the exact synonym
of hypocrisy;
offering a kindness
that seemed to slither
and a smile
which always succeeded
in hiding his fangs
The real thoughts,
hid in the bush,
slithered in the bush
of suspense with predatory eyes
As if his happiness
never shed his skin,
always made the
paupers smile
Little did they know
that his shadow hissed
with silently bellowing
venom glands,
In fact,
little did they know
he was the chessmaster
of child-trafficking.
