"Smoke And Mirrors"

"Smoke And Mirrors"

A Poem by Rick Curti

Be careful with whom you meet

When you come in contact with phonies, just retreat

There's just to many good people all around

Look past the fakes, the good can be found

Why do so many, act this way

Think that money will make there day

It's not a way to lead a life

What happened to love at first sight

 

Some people are just a bunch of "Smoke And Mirrors"

Some things are not, what they really appear

 

Your left scratching your head, what can you do

They lie to your face, so go get a clue

You don't ever need to be like that

When there not getting there way, they will turn there back

 

Some are always trying to take a short cut in life

Instead of working hard and doing what's right

I really can't explain, it's hard to understand

Why must they want everything in demand

 

Some people are just a bunch of "Smoke And Mirrors"

Some things are not what they really appear.
