Elusive travels in the night
A study of non detection
Always staying out of sight
Presenting a false reflection.
A master at the game he plays
Quietly he patiently lingers
Seeking all the ones who stray
Mostly the under achievers.
Little do they know the skill
Of the one who hides in the night
All their challenges were to real
From the man who hid out of sight.
Their wits were never matched to his
Life lessons gave him better training
They could never attempt to go back
And undo the game they were playing.
Skill provided an end to the game
With a completed positive direction
To place the one that felt the shame
In a system of lawful protection.
Soon they saw the error of crime
And realized they would be caught
By the one who would find the time
To make the current crime wave stop.
