never showed his face
it seemed a little odd
but not much was said
until much later we found out
he was being thrown out
his malignant personality
had cost him everything
the woman that loved him best
was tired of his games at last
it seems he was not what he seemed
not even close to it
he had us fooled
right from the start
his trips and clothes and fancy cars
all for show and nothing more
trying to impress himself
the fleecing of believers
failed to stay the course
now he's tossed out
down on his luck, some might say
but he really did it to himself

I liked this very much. I have to say though I think you rarely meet the person you are talking to. I think this was a very good poem indeed though.

There is a great diversity in your subjects, but always the same perfect way telling your story.
You are a true talent.
