Pompous Poet

I silence every critic with words that I weave, my stories so captivating they’re hard to believe.

My lies become truth as my truth become lies, a pugnacious implosion of confused alibis.

I'll dazzle you with brilliance in the throes of grief, caught up in this moment of erroneous belief.

My knowledge gargantuan, one glimpse and you’ll see, yes the world is my oyster and you my detainee.

Just ease the seat back and enjoy the ride, a poet a prophet a Jekyll and Hyde.

Pick your poison I’m about to begin, for I am the almighty the original sin…

Accurately named! Haha but the skill backs it up. "My lies become truth as my truth become lies" Favorite line right there, when I write I get the same feeling. Of the two worlds blurring into one.
Your formatting really adds to the personality of the poem. Your vocabulary is outstanding, I found myself looking up a few words (and I almost never have to do that!)
Great Job! But you already knew that ;) haha
