To Embellish Activities Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Anyone who lives a lie and does it well,
To embellish activities actually done...
Does it with a belief deceiving is accepted.
Afterall...
When has the telling of truth been respected?

And who has ever glowed with it shown,
When held high and hoisted on shoulders...
With a telling of a truth told,
Already known to show that this offends?
When celebrated delusions get attention.

'That's not true.
All of us live to value truth.
Every aspect of our lives depend on it.
And 'who' would consent to deception?
Especially to threaten,
Our wholesome and honest quality of life? '

I have no idea.
I'm not into watching movies.
OR comedic TV shows.
But I will admit...
Victoria's Angels have me annually addicted.

'There are other examples,
Of our wholesome and honest quality of life.
Why pick just one? '

I'm into wings and imagined halos.
I set my standards high.
