A devilish master of mind games,
Infiltrating your subconscious,
Playing tricks on you,
Taking things out of context,
Mishearing,
Instilling fear,
Filtering statements and actions to fit
Restrictive outdated beliefs
Seductively whispered in your ear
By that goading insidious wretch.
Don’t give him the time of day,
Say “no,
I’m not listening,
Leave me be,
You have hold of me no more”.
