Subtle Changes

 .

Oft times we are too close to see

The making or changing of history.

The forest is made up of too many trees

Blocking the view of anything new.

.

The implications and variations,

Said to be pure as the driven snow,

Are often disguised from enquiring eyes

And hidden in layers and layers of lies.

Shades and Shadows

~

Shades of green

and shades of blue

Shades of lies

and shades of truth

God draws the lines

between the two

.

Man empowers

them to blur

Casts his shadow

to block the view

Then claims he cannot

discern what’s true

Blindfold of Lies

  

~

He concocted a blindfold of lies

A fabricated web of art

Quite superfluous at the time

‘Cos there are none so blind

As those who will not see

And the wearer was me

EYES

.

Burning eyes

Are eyes of anger,

Lowered eyes

Are eyes of shame,

Dancing eyes

Are eyes of mischief

As we all play the game.

.

We search each other’s eyes

To distinguish fact from lies.

Lips don’t always tell the truth

(And you’re the living proof),

But your wide,

Innocent eyes

Convinced me otherwise.

.

Burning eyes

Are eyes of anger,

Lowered eyes

Are eyes of shame,

Dancing eyes

Are eyes of mischief

As we all play the game.

Breaking Up

Breaking Up

I do regret I can’t forget…
The curve of your cheek
As soft as a peach,
The gleam of your lips
That beg to be kissed,
But your beautiful eyes
Could not hide your lies.
I don’t believe you any more –
I wish that you’d walk out the door.
Please leave me alone,
Don’t call and don’t phone,
And please don’t resist
Or try to persist.

And for those of you who would like a little music…

The Spin Doctor

The Spin Doctor

Truth is lies and lies are truth
And never the twain shall meet –
Except in the doctor’s spin machine,
An instrument of great deceit.

Put in some black and add some white,
The mixer blends them well,
Until it’s hard to tell them apart
And know what’s what at all.

An easy way to attain success:
Combine the facts with fiction.
The product of this simple act:
A most poisonous concoction.
