Need
All who lie - need,
creative people lie all the time,
either to themselves or others.
They may claim, that this is 'My Truth'!
They may say,
that this is my very soul,
I have made it for you
out of papier mâché and toothpicks,
it represents my pain or joy
or whatever.
Don't be fooled,
they have constructed a truth
that is not a bit like them,
what they paint, write or sculpt
is a need
and all who lie need to Need.
