A Fathers Lesson
he taught me honesty
to bend the facts one should never
for the twist eventually leads to lies
then lost will be the truth
content I would be never
for with each untruth a soul slowly dies
until in death I would be viewed a liar
to dwell in misery forever
for eternity a dishonest man cries
