Save Romances

I love being underestimated; it gifts me broader chances.
And, when I have the lesser hand, I’d not augment my circumstances.

Going stealth & near invisible, most bestow the barest glances.
When I am among the throngs…my anonymity it enhances.

Some say leaning into false perception is the weakest of stances.
Yet, who attacks civilians when there’s no shortage of foes with lances?

Then, there are the times when the day’s orders are preening brags & prances.
Those foolish means to draw a pool of fools into stupefied trances.

Underreckoning’s effective in dodging violent advances.
Though, the shields of false assumptions do not result in dates & dances.
