The Big Lie!

The Big Lie!

A Poem by Dylan Macadham
"

A poetic Inquiry in 12 lines …or is it, Enquiry? :)

"

The Big Lie!

Is it the Biggest?

Bigger than, say,

The Tooth Fairy?

Or,

Practice makes perfect?

Or,

Life after Death?

Yeah, okay, you got me,

It trumps all these!

Thanks DD !
Is it possible the last line reveals some pre-existing bias? Surely the writer does not question the veracity of one known for unimpeachable truth?

Droll, John B,
Yes, (un)impeacable is the reveal :)
I could not stop laughing after reading this poem. Bravo. This question will define this moment in time with sublime lunacy that it so richly deserves. And truly speaks to this society in profane and truthful ways. An indictment of our moral failings, and our culpability of believing anything because of our incurious nature. Thank you for sharing your poem.
