Little "white" lies
Matthew 5:37
37 Let your word be ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no.’
More than this is from the evil one.
Little white lies ... where is the end?
The tendencies to misrepresent facts as you know them
and look for excuses to appear better than your actions warrant,
show depravity at its deepest
Compromise meant ... a sickening trend
as it gets bend into imagination.
Corrupted core ... that wants more
like a boiling sore in temptation.
The smell is there ... everywhere
appearing fair in contemplation.
Deep ingrained ... forever stained
leaves you maimed in deep frustration.
