Flaming A-Aitches

I wish I knew how to cheat, it's something I just don't know how to do. If someone taught me how to cheat, perhaps I'd be a better liar. If I knew how to be a liar, for sure I would know how to cheat. I'm a compulsive liar, believe me...I am telling you the truth. I don't cheat, I wonder...is it my wife or my girlfriend that's cheating.

"I'm a compulsive liar, believe me...I am telling you the truth." Great line Charlie; it's playing with my brain. :) Cheers - Gary

The last line has me worried. Wife or girlfriend? Trust this is a fun poem.

You can trust this was meant to be fun, Victor. It started out to be serious, then, as I kept writing, it seemed a little less serious, then, I through a couple of more lines in to make it humorous (lol) So I don't know what to call this. Perhaps next time I'll have my coffee first before I write poetry (lol) Thanks for the visit!
