Deceit
Lies masqueraded as truth,
Unscrupulous, and uncouth,
Deceit in love,
Deceit of money,
Deceit with trust,
Deceit with facts,
Vaporous semi-truths,
Held as solid gospel,
The twists of truths,
Serving for one a selfish use
But for the victim of these falsehoods,
A form of deep abuse,
Borrow things, no intent to return,
Cheating others, let them burn!
How low can one go?
For even but a dime,
Will puzzle me,
Til the end of time.
