 A lie is a lie is a lie

 It is not a dilemma

 called the road not taken.

 A lie is a lie is a lie.

 It is a crossroad whence 

many roads branch out to nowhere

and return to square one.

The real sin 

mystifying misguiding masters

ho-ho-hoax juggling chicanery 

whimper awhile the holier-than-thou

and the truer-than-the-true

thus is aforetime buried the birth of belief.

A lie is a lie is a lie.

Cynics find fact stranger than fiction!

A lie is a lie is a lie.

Life thus splinters in

a glasshouse where mirrors reflect mirrors

whence echo silent screams full of (t)errors!

Pratima@ When lies wear the cloak of truth/breathe cannot  the honest, forsooth!
