Pivot

Pivot

Perhaps we can
Prevent committing
Perjury if we can
Pivot away from
Prevarication long enough to
Posit the truth when 
Presenting ourselves at traffic court

Great poem , Oliver, but you need consistent syllable count in each line. That was funny someone asked if you are a cop! Happy July 4!
