Lie

Yes, a lie is just a lie, but the truth also has
problems.&nbsp; I relay the facts and the
words take on a life of their own, leave out the backdoor and walk on down the
road. They move to another town and never find time to come back for a visit
even though, I am their mother.&nbsp; And woe
to the woman who grows attached to credit or recognition for her ideas.&nbsp; These kidnapped prodigies are never ransomed
but sold outright and their DNA not questioned or tested.

So, my advice is to love your words in secret and raise your
notions behind high walls.&nbsp; If you are
ever called upon to share your wisdom, lie.&nbsp;
For even if you’re caught the risk is tolerable.&nbsp; Exposure is awkward but then again no one is
looking, so, what is there to lose.&nbsp; A
lie is just a lie but it stays home with you at night.
