If Dishonesty Is More Despicable Than Lies

If dishonesty is more despicable than lies,
let one ponder over guilt 'till that word dies!


Why are dishonest people so confident...
that being caught is no embarrassment?


Taking someone's else belongings to pay the rent, 
or stealing an identity is easier than robbing a bank!   


If the word " Dishonesty " is more despicable than lies,
why be that one who condones or even sympathizes?
