THE
PRETENDERS
Sneaking
by, getting away what they can,
Lying,
sleazing, full of demand;
It's
never their fault, they're their own biggest fan,
These are the pretenders.
Using
words to deceive, they try to confuse,
And
place the blame on the very ones they use.
But
when asked for help, they serve their excuse,
Revealing their
selfish intent.
Seeming
quite normal, and oft times look better,
Attracting
the ladies, and sometimes he gets her;
Or
seduces a man to impose marriage's fetter,
even
abusing the sanctity of love.
Thus
pretending through life, a show of their ego,
An
act on stage, or a game of stratego,
Who
they really are, we probably will never know,
because
they aren't real people.
