Blackmailer!
©️Ikwulono Mohammed Senison Nigeria Seeking favour unmeritedly With desperation, trudges secretly Weaving conspiracy, teaming accomplices To rob the innocent prime, off offices Like a witch suffering about all nights Haunting people in their sleepy sights Exposing his laziness in true earnest For she hides her/his face , in merest Seeing the one haunted, physically. Without any zest nor iota of hope The blackmailer, in a treacherous lope Betraying the best ally for self gain A hypocrite, despairingly despondent Seeking a short cut via envy to lain A disguised confidante, painted ment Like a canker worm, corroding Amigo's Stance from the main fabric of egoes Ambidextrous agent, hating lover Of Ally's progress, vent to maneuver And engineer the downfall of the innocent With the Arrow of wickedness, so scent. What's your gain his/her exit from here? His/her benefit never added you, hear! So shameful, laziness,subdues deeply Your thought , losing humanity wholly And your act boomerangs soon, so heinous Crisscrossing your innards, so veinous And you are sued to the court of your conscience. Where is your gain for acting with nescience?
