A Metaphor of the Intellectual Mind

___________________ Within the crying mind of deceit Her arms raised to defend A gallant display of trickery For the stinch of filthy lies Should fold in dieing sin Of youth, to let the drama exist But for now an aging man Quickly to admonish in lasting blows In a quick lesson of honesty Through the worn splintered stick ________________________________________________ This poem does not promote hitting or violence of any kind it's just a metaphor... 11/20/2016
