Flies and Lies
When you see so many flies
Be careful, there is a carrion
Somewhere. Behave like a lion
Run, run. The flies are all over your thighs
They can surely and slowly devour you.
An environment, which is full of lies
Will eventually crumble too.
Lies cannot fly

The Untruth of a Lone and Erroneous Prophecy
The Untruth Of A Lone And Erroneous Prophecy
What has a prophetic death done to this poor soul
the merest thought of sleeping under freshen sod
stir the urgent flames, hefting in more Irish coal

Shall the sky its higher heavens thus so soon part
or maybe earth will hear,

Dangers of Delusion
Sadly, we may suffer a delusion
Understanding not the thing we conceive,
While functioning under the illusion
Everything is truly as we believe.
Perceptive minds do not always perceive
That often-told lies are still lies, indeed,
Truth is always borne on factual need
Easily recognized as veritas --
Virtuous, of good character, good seed
Free of falsity and meaningless dross.

I Am Fake
I am a fake so many times a day,
It is crazy

Knowing I can be real only in my

Truth Matters
It all mattered so much it hurt,
It mattered for his little show,
It mattered so much for his performance,
That truth was the first thing to go,
The truth of the small things that weren’t very big,
The truth that was easy to change,
To make his performance notably better,
To make us all watch him on

Do not listen .nay i

You told me that you love me,
And I felt that it was real.
You told me that you love me,
And I say I love you but I lied...
