Analysis of Traitor



It hasn't been so that long
when the traitor has done his task
The smell that he is among
in hiding with his mask

he has been so mischievous
in doing task so treacherous
he has done commiting this crime
respect lost to a dime

with such an act
day turned dawn
it is no fact
the respects' all gone

i am starting to crawl
as i smell it near
here comes my fear
about my downfall
