Not Lies Exactly
They are, she claims, only other versions of the truth.
He doesn't trust her.
Perhaps he shouldn't. Β This may be a setup.
Others version of the truth, you say? Β What the
hell does that mean?
She's always been this way: inclined to use slippery
words instead of those which, like eating
oatmeal every morning, are immediately solidifying.
He wants to confront her, but it seems
useless. Β She'll only offer more lies cloaked in this
new dress. Β He's heard enough.Β

Thank you for your kind words. Β I am pleased your appreciated "Not Lies Exactly." Β I often use dialogue in my poetry, although I wonder if I occasionally overuse it.
