Whether Approved Or Not Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Whether approved or not.
In homes to allow dishonesty known.
With it to defend.
And provide reliable shelter.
That day will come,
When truth to want and hear spoken.
Will not appear inside to reside.
Since honesty and truth to expect,
Has left to leave...
Deception to accept it.
From the ones defended,
Taught to lie and use alibis.
By whoever it was,
Choose to refuse the telling of truth.
Whether approving of it or not.
Truth on those doors,
Seldom comes to knock.
