Permission To Treat The Witness As Hostile Poem by Hans Ostrom

Permission To Treat The Witness As Hostile



I refuse to answer
on the grounds that
language is terribly
imprecise, and that
whosoever swears to
tell the whole truth
(as I was just compelled
to swear) by definition
lies.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Rod Mendieta 29 March 2017

Only the second poem I've read from the author, and I'm also compelled to write a positive review. Again, witty, unconventional, the kind of poetry that I favour because it compells one to THINK.
