Mr. True went to see the F.B.I. guy
who imediately suspects that the truth is a lie.
Because the truth was looking kind of rough.
(Doing battle with the Lie can be pretty tough.)
So the F.B.I. guy decides to call up the lie,
to ask if he really just had
a conversation
with Mr True.
This evidently being the sort of thing that these F.B.I. guys do.
So the Lie is told that the F.B.I. guy isn't quite
sold, on the truth that he had heard.
To him it had sounded very absurd.
But, the truth would expect, that he would at least check, and see for himself, if the Lie had somehow managed to stack the deck. or something else equally sly.
Whereupon the Lie lied as that is what the lie is best at doing.
Saying;" No, no, what he is saying isn't so."
"You have my word." Lie adds to his untrueing
"If this were true i'd tell you so." Says lie
reminding the F.B.I. guy how far back that the
F.B.I. and the Lie go.
At this time, reassured that no crime,
or suspects prime were to be found beside
or around, the Lie and his interests.
The F.B.I. guy appoligizes to the Lie, for the trouble that truth has caused to the Lie.
and by and by.
Mr. true returned and quickly learned that the F.B.I. thought that Mr. True
was Mr. Lie.
Or, this was thought by this one F.B.I. guy.
How many more F.B.I. thought it as well?
Not even the truth could tell.
So Mr. True, point by point, without getting his nose out of joint, went from exhibit A to B to C toD using logic and reason expertly.
Making it obvious, except to the most oblivious
that Lie most foul was stinking up the area.
But the F.B.I guy, (don't ask me why)
cannot be unconvinced that Mr. True wasn't Mr. Lie. But he promises to go see the Lie once more. Though he didn't know what for.
So once again, the same as back when this F.B.I guy first went to see the Lie.
In fact he was more comfortable with the Lie than with the truth.
And the F.B.I. guy wondered why he wondered why? When all he had to do was ask the Lie, to get any answer he needed to hear. usually when they were by themselves
so no one else would hear.
Thats when the Lie told the F.B.I. guy:
"I have word on this guy,saying True is his name. It's sad, he's really not to blame.
Poor man's had it rough. His mental stuff has suffered greatly. Mostly lately. From maladies and traumas extreme. He's not what he seems. But who is?" said the Lie.
To the F.B.I. guy. "It's oh so horrible it really is.
His brain is like a can of soda that has lost its fizz! His marbles? Lost! His hardwiring? Crossed. His brain salad? Tossed.He's a psych case, and the place for him, Jim is a padded cell at the madness hotel.It's even been certified that his mind mush won't gel. This man's not well."
The F.B.I. guy said to the Lie that it was kind of amazing how everything he said sounded even more true than the straight from the horses mouth info I get from you.
"Yes." said the Lie." It isn't always easy to tell, who is lying. said in a rare moment of truth.
The Lie was slick,there's no denying.
Then the Lie followed through saying that
now you know he wasn't being true, like i'm being with you. Honestly said the Lie.
Good enough for me said the F.B.I. guy.
Now I can close this case and he could of.
Except that he never really opened it
and probably never would of.
For even if he totally knew that Mr. True was being true.
How would that help him? Or me? Or you?
Nobody ever said the F.B.I guy was dumb.He could tell this mess was a kind called zero sum.
No way, says the F.B.I. guy. I'm not getting down off this fence on either side in any ones defense. Request denied. I'm not gonna get my professional pancakes fried.Just to find out what is true?
That would be a very foolish thing to do.
So the Lie known as True.
And the Truth known as Lie. And the F.B.I. guy who is known as the one who doesn't know.
Who is who. or what is true.
And so it goes.
When lie is believed, confusion grows.
At least around here.
I hope this has helped to make that clear.
This is how it went down.
(Well, pretty close says Mr. True.)
(No it isn't says Mr. Lie.)
Lying as lie is want to do.
(Probably not but maybe so. Hell, I don't know, gotta go.)
Says F.B.I. guy.
With him went the chance of helping what was true, make it's way to you.
Now without Justice, the truth gets thinner.
The Lie grows fatter.
And the F.B.I. guy will be promoted for how quickly he washed his hands of the matter.

To say this would be frustrating to go thru would be an understatement. Why is it so easy for us to believe lies? Is it because lying seems more believable? Really enjoyed this one, o talented one. Kie |

Damn good story. You've used some pretty unconventional rhyme schemes in here- I'm all for that. Made me re-read lines over again to make sure I'd actually read a rhyme, because I was so engrossed in the attempt to follow this intriguing plot line. You sure have a plethora of ideas in that travelled head of yours . . .
A real crap poem. (said Mr. Lie) *winks* |
