Mubarak Slaps Face Of Egyptian People
Mubarak announces stirs public
all protester demands will be met
demand number one was Mubarak
remove his own dictator neck.
Mubarak announces through army
protester demands will be met
Mubarak announces through his
political party demands will be met.
Six to eight hours Egyptian
protest people patiently excitedly wait
to learn Hosni Jackal God has
again lied to an entire Egyptian nation
to learn Hosni Jackal God has
shame lied to entire global community.

I'n School
In school:
I was told to sit down and shut up.
I should just shut up and
be quiet
In school I could learn
And I learned
and I faced the master
I learned about the play,
the theatre,
but this was no school of drama
So I lied

I Lied For A Good Reason
My words used to mean a lot
But they don't mean much anymore
Because I lied to you about some things
You need facts and proof now
Because I lied to you about it
When you asked me a question
About what I was doing
I did it to protect you
So I wouldn't break your heart
But ended up breaking it anyways
By lying to you about it
I need you to know
I did it so you wouldn't
Have to stay up late at night
Wondering if I was gonna make it home safe
Even though your mad right now

Amos Sibley
Not character, not fortitude, not patience
Were mine, the which the village thought I had
In bearing with my wife, while preaching on,
Doing the work God chose for me.
I loathed her as a termagant, as a wanton.
I knew of her adulteries, every one.
But even so, if I divorced the woman
I must forsake the ministry.
Therefore to do God's work and have it crop,
I bore with her!
So lied I to myself!
So lied I to Spoon River!
Yet I tried lecturing, ran for the legislature,
Canvassed for books, with just the thought in mind:
If I make money thus, I will divorce her.

The Penalty
Once in life I watched a Star;
But I whistled, "Let her go!
There are others, fairer far,
Which my favouring skies shall show
Here I lied, and herein I
Stood to pay the penalty.
Marvellous the Planets shone
As I ranged from coast to coast--
But beyond comparison
Rode the Star that I had lost.
I had lied, and only I
Did not guess the penalty! . . .
When my Heavens were turned to blood,
When the dark had filled my day,
Furthest, but most faithful, stood
That lone Star I cast away.
I had loved myself, and I
Have not lived and dare not die!

A Reflection
At one time I was blind
Blinded by the person in the mirror
The person in the mirror
Was someone I didn't like
A person that was full of anger
Anger which know one could stop
A person who was dishonest
A person who lied to themselves
A person who lied, cheated and stole
This person scared me
Yet the reflection I seen
Was me
How could this be me?
I didn't like this person I was looking at
That person couldn't of been me
Yet it was time to face the facts
This was me
This is who I'am
Now I know I had to change
If I didn't like this person

The war's begun
The war's begun,
The world is done.
Give up now.
And let us go.
Looking all around,
Everyone is down.
The world is in ashes,
Cause the war's begun.
Fire spreads,
The world is dead.
They have lied,
Cause the game's begun.
Living in a world.
Full of ashes.
Loss of breath,
Then I go down.

Sharpening My Axe
back to the grind wheel....
sharpening my axe for another week;
and listening, for the sound
of my own heartbeat
within the heartbeat of the universe,
in the heartbeat of the stranger,
in the heartbeat of my enemy....
i have slept with despair,
with suffering and need....
have wallowed in my own mistakes.
have been lied to, used, and abused....
but at times, to be honest with myself,
i have lied to and abused others
let me move forward with honest hope,
with firm dedication to compassion....
let my every word be a tool,

itchy Pie Is Born
Skunky was his name—
he liked to play a lot of games.
He lied about people all over the place
he even got angry with an evil Skunky face.
He tried to deny what he had did—
he would make up stories just like a kid.
He was friends with Razel who knew he was a liar

It Is As If They Wish To Mark and Brand
Once it is decided,
A lie will be told...
To enhance the 'standing'
In someone else's eyes,
By those who do this.
It often leads to bleak circumstances!
Especially when it is discovered,
Those lied to and lied on...
Have known about it.
The moment it was done!
Liars often use the same pattern.
And leave familiar tracks.
It is as if they wish to mark and brand,
With a certain pride...
Their own deceptions.
Unbelieving the power of truth and facts.
Like a child who will not admit,
It is their hands seen in the cookie jar!
