Lies

The past is not but nuisance
When a lie is laid to bear.
They weed our sacred garden
As they pop up everywhere.

I double down on their existence
Knowing repetition is the key.
Sterilize a lie one hundred times...
Feeble minds will soon believe.

             The End

David, I'd be lying if I said that this wasn't brilliant as always. Thanks
