LiarA Poem by Earl SchumackerThe truth and nothing but the truthLiar
I can not tell a lie That would be a lie That would be duplicitous Duplicity is a lie
To be honest Being honest is a lie If you are a liar and so inclined If a lie is a lie can it be the truth
Can it be something else Like white or some other color Is white a color or the absence of color Is a pink lie any less dangerous
What if I told you I was a pink Is that believable Liars come in all shapes and sizes They fit in the pocket next to the sin Next to the elephant swimming
I have to be honest I don't own a suit or pocket That only makes sense Doesn't it
