Under your covers of inpertinence.

Your inpertinence
was no more,
but obstructive
as one jumped
over the hurdles
you constructed
based on lies to
reach the truth.

Sometimes the truth is in the lies themselves- a person who lies always tells on themselves down the road... I love this witty diatribe. Clever, ascerbic, right on point!

[andrew mitchell]

thank you so much annette, i like that word ascerbic, not often used.

[Great Aunt Astri]

Impertinence gone, but still obstructive. Yes. Hurdles based on lies ?And then the truth! That sounds perfectly logical. Good perceptive poem!

[andrew mitchell]

thank you gaa for reading, yes lies are hurdles in a way to get to the truth

[Great Aunt Astri]

Yes,I think it is best to know you lie, rather than to lie and not know it!!! Don't you think?

[andrew mitchell]

i'd rather not know i think, to know would bring down trust a peg or two.

[Great Aunt Astri]

Yeah, that's a point. I must make a note of that! (:

[jacob erin-cilberto]

and then once we got there, we are still doubtful as whether we have really found the truth or not.

[andrew mitchell]

yes indeed j you are right.
