Politics Per Se
The art of persuasion is ability to sway
Structuring the factions is politics per se
The art of contrivance is ability to prey
Picking out the victims is politics per se
The art of craftiness is ability to play
Selection of teammates is politics per se
The art of advantage is ability to fray
Lining up the segments is politics per se
The art of perfidy is ability to bray
Perplexing the targets is politics per se
The art of bamboozle is ability to gray
Hoodwinking by colors is politics per se
The art of betrayal is ability to stray
Setting up the remnants is politics per se
