Band Aid

Band-Aid 
To cover up a scab. 
The lies won’t disappear. 
Only a temporary cover up. 
You can still see the scar. 
Always an excuse with a band-aid. 
Just a figure of speech. 
Dust under the rug to compromise. 
To avoid confrontation or a fight. 
The guilt is rising. 
I can see the under lining. 
Just another delay. 
Injustice is transparent on the wave. 
A scar shows your true colors. 
A secret to be revealed. 
Hinder the truth. 
The reckoning is on the move. 
Telepathic lies. 
Never honest, no surprise.
