Accused Of Lieing Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

To defend those who lie.
As if 'they' have been victimized.
Should not have anyone these days,
To wonder why.
Or pretend to be surprised,
That so many feel betrayed these days.
When hearing someone has been accused,
Of lieing and refusing to tell the truth.
With it then to find a way,
On their face to express shock.
And disbelief to imitate it faked.

"This I can not believe! "

-What is it you can not believe? -

"That anyone would lie like that.
And...
Not be honest about it! "

-I...uh...WHAT? ! -

"You know?
Not be truthful."
