In Greek mythology, Apate (/;;p;ti;/;Ancient Greek: ;;;;; Ap;t;) was the personification of deceit. Her mother was Nyx, the personification of night.[3][4] Her Roman equivalent was Fraus (i.e. "fraud"). Her male counterpart was Dolos, daemon of trickery, and her opposite number was Aletheia, the spirit of truth.
Apate
Deceitful and wise
In a destructive manner,
She was like a sly shadow
In a city unknown.
Her presence is made of
Old dust and rats,
Bats and snakes.
She shakes the world
Of morality
With her wish to succeed
At any cost.
Her influence
Is meaningful
And catastrophic.
Apate
