Her little band of supporters

who once came and went in droves-

All sucked in by her genius

who ate her fresh mangoes.

 

Her little band of takers

all lapped up her kudos

in their world of social climbing,

Alas, her perception was their loss.

 

She analysed their good intentions

and squeezed them like a wrench.

She saw through every charlatan

with both fists in a clench.

 

Her little band of helpers

are now but a trusted few.

For when her cupboards grew bare,

the rest vanished into the blue.
