I was too enthralled
by your mouth
to notice those lipstick
covered lies that came
from them. That was
my biggest mistake.

Thanks for liking my post about the Lion of Babylon and the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. I clicked back onto it and noticed the picture didn’t get copied. So I added it late. Your poetry really gets me thinking. 🙂

this is brilliant. a victim of his own triple-layered obscurantism. didn’t see the external was false. didn’t see the lips spoke falsitude. didn’t hear his own head warn him of the falsity of thinking he knew. sheer brilliance, Sarah!
