A Liar’s Life…
Standing in a grave yard alone to mourn,
to stare at the mound of dirt; at the shell
of one who loved but a few, a seed of
kindness never sowed, love they did not
seek, now only silence lies beneath.
Entitlement is all that remains grief, no
greeting, unwanted presence, gestures,
and attitude in death there was only
greedy ploys. Gluttony bloomed before
the setting of the sun, looking for more
to take; their life took on a forged tongue.
Open jeers, false deeds, honor lost, the
price of greed can be at a great cost. Roars
the misty breath of strife destiny has finally
caught up with a Liar’s life.
