Apatetic ... Slick

Today's word is "apatetic" ... ap-uh-TET-ik ... Zoology. assuming colors and forms that effect deceptive camouflage. (Dictionary.com)

Slick
Slippery is what they are.
     Shimmying this way and that,
Using apatetic tactics ...
     to outwit their opponents.

If they change so easily
   with the wind prevailing,
Arranging smiles and comments
   to appease ...
What discerning magic 
     must be engaged,
To divine their true intentions?
