In a time of stretching trickery
Finding truth too slight to mention
The written or the spoken words
Bound up in mock invention
A story is just one more tale
With a realistic bending
Written down from made up facets
Creative chronicles upending
Inhabiting a novel world
Where every utterance is fiction
Bibles of conspiracy rule
Overstuffed with contradiction
Telling tales is our default
Betrayals nothing new
Treachery the way of change
Running rampant points of view
Depending on your standing
To tell a shameless lie
To mitigate you propagate
Allowing truth to pass you by
