Screenplay of Liars

“Brilliance” says the liar
Captivating the fraud
Honesty only stretches as far as a kind word
Which drips with fake enthusasium
To a butterscotch tune
Lulling away harmful nightmares
Into a sleepless intoxication
Time stands still to the ones who cant tell it
And the cowards just wave
Shocking the easiness out of normal
To an equilibrium set crooked
And a cock-eye never blinking
Sees a real person
Revealing only a corpse
“This is truth” again spouts the teller of lies
Keeping us profound
Our injustice glee
And crazy as plain
