So Help Me God

My own self I wish to perjure,
And press the matter none the further
But all the lies I then must conjure!
One right after another...

So help me God, in sacred oath
No false-witness shall I bear
All Lies, all Truths- I tell them both!
I do, I solemnly swear!

In response to the title I fully suspect he will. I responded to some of the responses you made to some of the poems you posted yesterday.

I enjoyed reading your work. Soup mail me some time and tell me a bit about yourself. Your new friend from Canada. Thanks as well for taking time to get to know me through my writing. It is appreciated.
