Host
Complacency intruded where not welcomed
Yet found shelter inconspicuously
Its host dormant
Complacency discerns his thoughts
Witnessing his fears; pleased by his mental state
Its host monotonous
Complacency observed his routine, reveling at his confined space
Comprehending his have-not status
Its host managing
Complacency now prospering where not welcomed
Synchronized and functioning with him intimately
Its host complacent
