Truth Traitor

Joe Slick got wealthy as a liar.   
He offered his services for hire. 
He could twist the truth
with a skill uncouth.
Politicians were his buyer.

It's sweet of you to say that. Thank you. Among limericks, you might enjoy "Aftercare," "Gulp," "Sausaged," "UFO," "Stung," etc. For conventional, rhymed poems, look at the list titled "Best Paul Schneiter Poems." I hope I don't wear out my welcome.

I am kind of amazed to see your work... You're simply gifted (i don't think anyone can write Limericks the way you do). 7/7.. Without a second doubt...
