A
window of opportunity
Smooth
as silk,
soft
as butter,
the
words poured out,
of
that snake's mouth.
I
had heard things similar before,
catch
words,
catch
phrases,
that
were sure to entice,
even
the wisest of birds,
but
i am not a bird
and
so they had no effect on me.
Not
in what they said,
but
in what they did not say,
what
they did not know,
this
steered me clear.
How
many times,
how
many different ways,
have
i heard this presentation.
I
have been caught once,
maybe
twice,
in
snares much more elaborately laid.
This
one did not interest me,
I
have heard it before.
I was bored.
