Sly

That nice way some people have
Of asking seemingly simple
Or even well intentioned questions
For a hidden purpose
Of gathering information
To furnish plots and conspiracies
That have devastating ends

I know i can never hope
To master that skill

But will i,
In this lifetime,
Learn to ever recognize it,
At least?
Or is even that
Too much to hope for?
