The lie did bow that deep
Down even deeper than the root
Five score, maybe more
Valentines in vain
Show me anyway
The tiniest hairs remain like
Star flakes raining
Creating leaf cakes glazing
Hearts in rosy butter and
Hallmark clutter
Lie more pretty still
Pepper then mint me
Sing my praises in chocolate nibs
Through marshy mazes
Play the lyres licking
begging, kissing
As liars kicking
My heart in
Eternal echo
Or, lay down your lies
Let Atlas shrug
Find your sweet relief
At last between my
Physic-psyche flow
Souls at once aglow
Grasping not at passing straws
Captured wills
Rippling, diffusing, disintegrating
In the dragon’s claws
Show me your electro-magnetic rainbow
The strongest threads
The thickest webs
Grasped in bitterest despair
While you stay stoic
Gasping for air
Show me how best is your worst
In a grand but joyless burst
So I may bake your claims into pies
And serve them up
Smothered in lies
