Nurtured in the womb
of blazing doubt and anxiety
Nourished by recurring fear
Delivered with a resolute will
The lustrous lie is born
Surpassing all growth charts
The newborn enters adulthood
Traversing decades in months
Deception and disloyalty
It’s perpetual paramours
It works underground
Surreptitiously substituting
The truth with its kith and kin
Making every lie a truth
And, every truth a lie
Lies upon lies upon lies
A proliferating dynasty
Of potent lies, it builds
That decimates its victims
Sans any fingerprints.
