You know …me…
At least you know
…of my ability...
To shift… an
Essential
Fact
…to a facsimile…
Invoke, a shadow of doubt…
In the vicinity
…of action…
Disguise the method of extraction
Adjust …the angle of perspective...
Without… raising a suspicion…
Cast a spell… of distraction…
An invitation for interest, if not interaction
A ploy…
To capture the imagination
Of the attentive…
Instill …a guise…
Thoughtful…. Trickery…
To capture the unwary
…or unwise…
Feign, a genuine sense of …common ground…
Inject …a good measure of false modesty…
(Damn, you’re good …at being bad)
Before the final curtain call…
An obligatory …puff of smoke…
The object …of the ruse…
As well as the perpetrator
Are both…
…Gone
