Lies

Politicians lie through smile Cunningly hide their greed Long nose, at least a mile War for oil, profit, bad seed Religions lie, God's word ! Hypocrites, gold their goal Money to be "saved" absurd Love is free, diamond soul Advertisers lie, say we're not enough Fancier car, house, clothes to be "in" Can't have fat body, call their bluff ! False religion, eating chocolate a sin We lie, afraid of disapproval, get real ! Childhood programmed to obey Listen to the heart, your desires fulfill Deep within, spirit knows the way 02/21/17
