Lies

"Lies" lies create havoc, they have short legs built to crumble, like square blocks in round pegs. lies fashion tales as rumors take flight destroying the soul and a life overnight. lies harbor falsehoods to trick and deceive erasing foundations of truth to conceive. lies infect lovers in romantic romps infesting the core of trust as on the heart, stomps. lies demand urgency to lie yet in vain speaking ill words and causing deep pain. a harsh reality determines and dies for a mouth has the power to damage with lies.

Have you ever heard of Martin Buber(the Jewish philosipher's book on the Psalms? One chapter in it is called "Against the generation of the lie". That is what your intriguing poem reminded me of. Good luck in the contest. Peace & Love Matthew Anish
