lies big or little they’re still wrong, denying breath of guilt thrives burning slowly social lubricant enhance personal misleading gain. ripples in streams flow outward in the end big or meager, lies! 7/27/2016 1-2-2-3-3-4-4-5-5-4-4-3-3-2-2-1

I love the theme you chose to write on:) There is no such thing as a white lie - white lies are still lies:)

Hi Eve, I enjoyed these piece and it's message. Lies not only hurt they destroy "our" lives . Lies lead to more lies. When does it end? It ends with the truth! Nobody is perfect but we must strive to put our best foot forward. Great job. Good luck in the contest. A Big seven:-) Alexis

Great poem! Far more easier to say when no perceived immortal consequences. God how I miss loving prayer in school at the beginning of each day. When taken out of public schools it was the beginning of the end, not only for this nation, but the world--for the Light was turned off.

You have several strings to your bow. You used this one to good effect. Am up past my bedtime watching NZ Cricket team Play in Zimbabwe. Fondest wishes David

The shape has been beautiful ... In respect of both-way grace I am not sure of ... but definitely conveys a very good message ...

I can't figure out if we are to read backwards word by word or line by line. I tried going word by word and it's SO difficult. It had to be very babyish the way I had to do it. Anyway, your poem has a lot of meat to it, Eve. Well done.(love the shape it took)

So true. I was moved by this....Lies may seem like a temporary solution to a bigger problem, but....in the end, when they are discovered, they hurt even more. Great poem and I love quote as well. Hugs, dear.
