For Liars, by Liar

The folks who know the truth aren't talking…. The ones who don't have a clue, you can't shut them up! --Tom Waits

You say you've seen
Shooting stars on Portland afternoons
You cry
And charge us with your
hypocritic oath
Your truth states:
Two and one don't make three

But look at me

Outlier among liars
Low living among high flyers
A burnt out cigarette.
My mind wont rest
and my soul's for hire.
This is my epitaph
For Liars, by liar,

(Something Thoughtful)
Ian
