Tricksters wool

Grimy eyes

Deceptive ways

When all that lives

Begins to fade

Creamy lies

Delicious taste

When all that breathes

Chases the bait

Failing to realize

The perfect disguise

The hidden pit

Fattens the skinny cat

Everyone thinks

He's royal blue

Out of the bag

Magic you

As black as the wood

Supportive fuel

They never knew

The pit

Made the changes

As spray polish

Does to shoes

Mummy and daddy,

are on a trip

Siblings are laughing

Glued to tv

You gently snick out

One cigar says, I do

Everyone thinks

You're whiter than snow

With feet of a kitten

Chameleons muse

Toothpaste to pepper mints

Encrypted news

Say you're a genius

Understood by few

Downgraded by your teachers

Parents include

Your theory can save

The atmosphere

From carbons misused

Everyone thinks

You're as dumb as a pig

The scales are not obvious

For you're Einstein renewed.
