Oh, how I know this is true Sara! I've been caught in a lie a couple of times by the stories becoming entangled and showing my lie! It's always best to not tell the lie in the first place! That way you don't get into these messes! This is a wonderful poem that I read this evening! Great Work!!

I'm not sure I totally get this. i get the last line but i'm having trouble connecting it all. it is probably just me. anyway, I like how your sentence lengths expand like the lie :)
