The puppet master
pulls the strings,
A web of lies
their whispers bring.
πππ
A guise of counsel,
a cunning art,
To twist the truth,
to tear apart.
πππ
With sly intent,
they bait the line,
Recording tales,
recasting time.

πππ
A mirror dark,
a skewed display,
Where shadows mock
the light of day.
πππ
But masks will slip,
and strings will fray,
The truth will rise,
it finds its way.
πππ
For those who
scheme to fabricate,
Will face the world
they helped create.
