Lies Poem by Simon Collins

Lies



your lies are taking centre stage
dripping black/blue in my mind
poison sliding down to my heart
through my lungs
breathless
I tighten like leather
those lies and their visions
none little
none white

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Patti Masterman 13 May 2012

This is an excellent verse, it caught me up in its drama, and startled me with its last admonition, tearing asunder the myth of lies being small, white and kindly intentioned. Simply beautiful.
