Con Games On Virtual Reality

 

Hiding behind the flickers and waiting for their chance

The grifters wear the mask to trick the audience

The virtual-online world, their stage to play

With lies and deceit, the con-artists, they stray

 

Not driven by reason nor sincere intention

They charm the environment and seek attention

Altering their versions of truth to befit their image

They maintain many of them suited to their page

 

The simple-minded users tend to believe ‘em

And give into their fancies of beating their drum

They offer friendly hand to the con-gamers

And the simulated friendships take the turn for worse.

 

They enter your world without your permission

Trick you with head games and alter your perception

Before you realize they get control over you

And later you surmise that they have cheated you.
