The Deceitful One runs.
Long and hard.
Their legs thick with muscle.
Years of running heavily evident.
Their arms thick with muscle.
Years of lifting their lies heavily evident.
.
The Deceitful One smiles.
Big and wide.
Rows of sharp teeth hidden.
Behind teeth like mine and yours.
Their lips stretched open,
Spread from ear to ear for eternity.
.
The Deceitful One watches.
Dilated and wild.
Hawk eyes as sharp as their tongue.
Searching for the innocent.
Crazy eyes wild and alert,
Dazed in anticipation of the hunt.
.
The Deceitful One listens.
Close and intense.
Zoning in from miles away.
Closing in on their prey.
Listening not to content.
Attracted only to sound.
