Lying Tower
Lies...
stack them up like
foam blocks, all foamy—
or wooden blocks
be wooden
Higher, and higher,
piled on top of the other,
teetering
A foundation built on lies
Sky high, too high
one
last lie
to put on top,
one more lie
as white and light
as a feather
but it is enough
to let everything
topple over...

Liar mother,
what becomes your child?
liar child,
what will become of you?
