Wolf masquerading as sheep

Wolf masquerading as sheep

A Poem by Aluppi Jampur
"

hiding behind good girl charm but they type are sometimes worst

"
You hide your real face behind smiles and giggles
behind sweet words you sow in the faces of audience
you crave this
your audience 
and yet you isolate and belittle those who pose a threat
any threat to your throne
mirror, mirror on your wall but you cannot love what it is you see
you are obsessed with threats you perceive
but we are not in competition, you and me
I came here looking for a family
not a wicked witch who believes she's a queen
and while you may have cast your spell of charms upon your unknowing audience who in an instant you'd harm
there are those of us who you can no longer deceive
the ones you've bullied behind the scenes
you've tried to make us worship on our knees
you've tried to silence us when we did not do as you please
but hear this from me and others here dear
we know who you are
and we have no fear
so go on a play the sweet kitten if you please
and pretend at the innocent lamb if need
but a wolf in sheep's clothing needs to breathe 
and each time you come out for air 
more of your wickedness is seen
