the longest lie.
Kayla Slack
when the east wind began
to lie, in ruins, heavily upon,
we at least will be a people of
truth-lovers and lie-haters
you must lie on the bed which
you have made for yourself
in thy lie-consuming mirror,
sometimes the joke, or the lie told,
makes up the better part of the occasion
he holds many profound truths,
but is quite unable to see how they
lie to each other
but let us view these truths with
closer eyes, and trace them through the
prospect as it lies
there lies your way,
but my humor lyes another way
the bees settle outside the hive,
to lie out, to lie up in lavender
why don’t we sit down and
lie to one another?
