Poet's Tears Turn To Joy

salty tears, pillow
clock ticks doom in ebony night
her nation, screams, fright

remember,poet
honesty, integrity is the prize
cheating, a disguise

up from quilts, jumped she
character, she then did smile 
above secrecy

You got my point! Thank you so much. People do not understand how they hurt themselves by a lie. It destroys them and others. As if God does not see cheaters, hah!one takes action against it but is not destroyed by it crushed by negativity...Pangie xx

Honesty, integrity is the prize. Be yourself and write you. You are the poster child for real humanity in poetry, Pangie. "Character" is the word ~ John

Gee, John, this had nothing to do with poetry. I agree with your statements, by the way. It was about "you know what", Apologies for not making it clearer, but I thought it was clear enough. Liars drive me bonkers. I don't understand how millions can lie and break laws. I am naive and trusting...I believe people far too much..gees. Thank you, PANGIE XX
