It feels like we’ve turned a corner

The ball has changed courts

But I’m not holding my breath

You’re a very charismatic individual. You’ve had the world at your fingertips for who knows how long. Of course they were going to believe you before they believed me. You’re the family man with the ‘golden image’ and I’m the newcomer who did things differently.

But then I caught a glimpse of something. I caught you in a lie. Right off the bat. I didn’t realize it at the time. I didn’t want to. After all, who would lie about something illegal?

But I roused your suspicions. I never fully trusted you. You saw it before I did. But I kept pecking away. I caught a glimpse of the demon lurking beneath the facade. Little did I know the hell you’d put us through.

It was like playing chess. You’re always 5 steps ahead. Every move I made was challenged.

But then something changed. The tide turned.

Your arrogance took over. You had gotten away with so much for so long.

I’m still not fully convinced this is the end. You don’t like losing, but you gave yourself away.

The days ahead will determine if I’m right. Until then, I’m laying low. There’s no need to stir the pot. I have no reason to. I have no interest in retaliation.

I know you’re not happy with me

I figured out what you were doing

Then I had the nerve to stand up to you

You made it a point to make my life miserable

It became an obsession

You kept at it

Digging away

The ‘dog whistle’ gets louder by the day

The eerie silence hasn’t stopped, either eavesdropping every chance you get

You flow between the two with ease

People expect us to move back where we came from. They see it as a failure. Because of what you’re doing.

One way or another, we will come out on the other side. Safe. Intact. In a new home. Without having to move back.

The crunch is on

You’re still trying to skirt the rules

Test the boundaries

What can you still get away with?

The ‘dog whistle’ is still being played loudly when you think it’s ‘best’

The eerie quiet is more prominent. Trying to get information to further your game.

Your behaviour says more than you think it does.

Your actions speaks volumes.

You’re trying

You’re obsessed

You’re pure evil

You’re a wolf in sheep’s clothing

You’re ‘dog whistle’ keeps getting louder

You’re days MAY be numbered, but that doesn’t mean you’re going to stop

You’re only going to get worse

I have a feeling you’re going to try to eavesdrop in the days ahead

You’ve already changed your routine in the past week

The battle may have shifted but that doesn’t mean you’ll stop pushing boundaries, testing limits, find loopholes…

The control

The power

Your arrogance

Your obsession

You ‘changed’ direction when you brought out a ‘new’ play

But it’s not as new as you think it is or want to be. It didn’t take me long to figure it out.

You’re more predictable than you think you are. Same play, same playbook. The only thing that changed was how it was implemented.

I am positive you got caught red handed the other day. That determined your next play.

But you’re arrogant and cocky. I figured it out

Will it probably change again? Yes

But until then, this ‘new’ play hasn’t had as much of an impact as you would like.
