The Deception: A Reading Poem

It is a young couple: That you know well
Had them for dinner more than a few times;
The man, he is not who he appears to be;
When he wears a mask to fool the others
This young couple; they are going to deceive you,
They are going to hurt you in some fashion,
Or this is a grey area coming up
A matter of time before this takes place,
Going to involve some money, property.
Not his true character he puts forward:
Lots of lies, and ruthless competition,
Nor have anyone in your circles heard.
Something too; deposit boxes and foreign banks,
And this is what is their own private life.
 
It is these deals: That will set this off
But you won't get involved making them cross;
Retaliation, they will feel is theirs;
When things are turned on them and not their way
Money is a funny thing; the great grand prize,
And some will go to great lengths to get it,
Or human lives and family mean nothing
Don't be fooled though, through Free Will can be stopped,
And outsmarted but the grey cloud is strong.
Their lives appearing like the Stepford Wives:
Lots of glamour and pomp and elegance,
But like an apple rotten to the core.
That is their first deception; yours is the second,
And they will play this on you in some months.
 
You must take heed: This message coming through
They will inflict lots of heartache on you;
Look good on the outside, but inside deceitful;
They will pull this off when least expected
It's a couple close to you; partied before,
And I do see deception, maybe murder,
Or the Greed card comes up next in the deck
Not a pretty picture this transaction,
And you are related by Church or blood.
I'd be laying low in the next few months:
Lots came through now I must leave, say 'Good bye',
Nor has this warning not basked in solvent.
They secretly talk behind you back; and gossip,
And you must beat them at their own sick game.
