Xerx's Bombshell

Like correcting a spelling error in
Microsoft Word with a lightning fast
click
or removing money from one's own debit account,
lies are really fast.

I'm tired, "muffin". Not tonight...
I'm an honest person (I don't steal)
as he snoops (excitedly).
I believe love is infusing, temperate, and
improving.
I am who I say I am. I'm not
an impostor.

Lies are slow to the tongue
and fast to the brain.
It can, if not monitored, take
the time between the first kiss
and the first hint of sentiment
before guilt is introduced in receipt form.
