Does it not
depend
on the circumstances
telling tall story's
among friends
acceptable
presentable
lies
Lying to a child
when mummy has died
knowing later
in their life
they will understand why
Lying for gain
to deceive
those
who do not wish
to travel their road
But we are denied
the truth in our life's
from cradle to grave
from those
who are supposed
to be honest
When we vote
for truth to arise
from the ashes
of previous
Lies
Sad is the truth
in the telling
that we live in a world
where curiosity
has become
Undone
