Charlie Baker Poet Rhyme

Telling Lies

Telling Lies 

Make your words worthy of speech
Your knowledge credible to teach
Understanding of what it implies 
When you are telling lies

Your dialogue impeccable by design
Augmented by your thoughts divine 
Looking deep within someone’s eyes
Sympathetic effect of telling lies

Perceptive to what lies may portray
Evolving to where truth goes astray
The legitimacy you no longer recognize 
When you’re deeply entrenched in telling lies
