Notes About The Poem

 

 

- This is not written to a special person - But we see many who do not speak the truth, even under oath - They play a dishonorable game ... for power - 

 

- Profound Truth -


So apathetic
Convincing crocodile tears 
Focus on the truth
He felt he mastered this game
The cheats syndrome is revealed

Hi Anne-Lise, indeed this is a truth. I always believe that untruths shall come back to bite you sooner or later. Everyone would know as soon as a lie left my lips. Sooner or later the truth becomes known. To lie is the cowards way. A strong write Anne-Lise. Have a wonderful Monday. Hugs....Mike. XX

Yes-- well said Anne-Lise. Power and hunger for power is absolutely corrupting.
