naked trees on ice -
silently the night has sown
a field of white lies...

But if I told you the truth

Things could get ugly...

Green eyes
Blue skies
White lies
Black dies
Yellow fries

Purple surprise
Red shies
Gray ties
Brown pies
Pink despise...

All day he sits in a chair, watching
winter spread like white linen,
clutching the body, fingers,
frigid in the hospital, 
frail as chalk, or
white lies-

"You'll survive"....

Woke

When white lies plot the course 
Oscillating between trust and deception 
Kindling radical dialogue with smoking tongues 
Escalating unilateral world supremacy

The truth lies
Somewhere between halve truths
And white lies
The truth lies 
Between excuses
And alibis
The truth lies
Somewhere between you and I 
The truth just lies...

Mr Clinton, why did you tell white lies? 
We all cried, mother thought you were so wise 
You made me feel so silly 
I gave you that sad Lillie 
Now I know you are so slimy like fries....

I have always lived in a gray area.
Weary of the red tape
I ever resorted to white lies,
That only made me 
the black sheep of my family.

business or pleasure:
  freedom or slave.
   land under water:
    wind over wave.
     
      mythical or magical:
       sale or return -
        are false gods and white lies
	 that bind us to save...

It starts with little white lies
Ever hungry, deception feeds on itself

A monster with a grip that won’t let go
Webs become impossible to untangle

Words that never see the light of truth
Bound with the silken thread of deceit...

There is no little sin
There's no Grace in 
There is no just sin it's just sin

There is no little lies 
There is no white lies 
There is no just lies,  just lies

REALIZE
Sometimes love is just another way to realize
Why do you keep complaining to criticize
Let's divert the attention to the white lies
We should be leaving the scene to demise

Today my girlfriend asked me,
How do I look in this dress?
Does it fit me like a glove?
I reluctantly said yes!

Does it make me look younger?
It's just perfect I replied.
So not to hurt her feelings,
I convincingly white lied....

The league of toadies 
Abound
Proffering info to all
Kind
Of revenue streams

Cloaked in a meme
Of free
Domination
Press
Where you want
The pressure

REBUKE
Exploitation
That divides a nation
With white lies
On a dark net...

Bring me to a place where the stars shine forever
White lies, the beast is finally slowed down to zero
I know the things are changed now, a last kiss

Blue blouse,
Short skirt.
Long legs,
Big flirt.

Powdered face,
Painted nails.
White lies,
Tall tales.

Blonde hair,
Green eyes.
Black heart,
In disguise.

Soft skin,
Sexy mole.
Full figured,
Empty soul.

Cold smile,
Hot breath.
Red lips,
Sure death....

I lie more the I should.

“What? Really?”
“I didn’t notice.”
“Broken? No way.”

Sometimes they are white lies.

“Just drawing, mom.”
“No, I’m writing.”
“Working on stuff, be right there!”

Sometimes they are deeper then you think.

“I’m fine.”
“Oh, it’s okay.”
“I forgive you.”...

Little nothings
Unimportant
Mere slips of the tongue
Omitted truths
Slanted or tinted
Not meant to hurt

Each one 
A drop
In that ocean
Drifting them apart

Backhanded compliments are meant to disturb
Yet on surface pretend to be a polite white bird

Giving fake hazel humor or slighted cranberry concern
When the person pretending to teach needs to learn

Learn the lessons of southern hospitality amber and
If you’re guessing know you can catch these hands

My hubby just fell out of bed
He banged his elbow and his head
Now I can hear groaning
Expletives and moaning
I’m certain that he isn’t dead!

Only the first line is true – last night we watched a programme on how easily people lie but on this occasion I would call this poetic licence
