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
