We lie It is in our nature to deceive When among apex predators We hide our true intentions Constantly camouflaging In our minds We make enemies of friends Wary of what games they play Friendships becoming wars of attrition Subvert each other's eyes Cloud each other's visions Readying blades And building intelligence caches Waiting for the moment To air out ***** laundry To manipulate To puppeteer To instigate and spread propaganda A new era of Cold War As if social interactions Are but chess games Who will sacrifice the pawns Who will take the queen Who will **** the king Or are we but pretending to be jesters Or rooks silently waiting in the corner?

The New Cold War
We lie It is in our nature to deceive When among apex predators We hide our true intentions Constantly camouflaging In our minds We make enemies of friends Wary of what games they play Friendships becoming wars of attrition Subvert each other's eyes Cloud each other's visions Readying blades And building intelligence caches Waiting for the moment To air out ***** laundry To manipulate To puppeteer To instigate and spread propaganda A new era of Cold War As if social interactions Are but chess games Who will sacrifice the pawns Who will take the queen Who will **** the king Or are we but pretending to be jesters Or rooks silently waiting in the corner?
