What Lies You Tell

What lies you tell!

You desire a kiss

such that you will put your own good name on the line

Expecting me to accept it

and proceed to

blithely respond with a lie of my own



I shall admit (in good honesty)

that at one time I would have embraced such nonsense

But literary figures of days long past

have channeled undiscovered portals of my mind



While intending to remain uninspired

I must be open to explore

The words of Wilde have shown through the window

and my fertile mind craves more
