The Great Deceiver

She preens before the camera eye with a gaze

steady and vacant. Thoughts drop like rocks

from behind enamel curtains. The gullible &

fearful exalt her words as gospel. Her beauty

lines her pockets with gold as she speaks of

a coming paradise if given the chance to be

the shepherd of the flock. Every word, every

passing day brings her closer to making a

grab for the throne.
