I so hate lies you cannot rust a liar and they do it so blatant even two inches from your face - No it's not a joy do not hide behind a lie for sooner or later you will be found out.

Hello!
I have absolutely no understanding at all of what I have just attempted to read.
Poetically, your offering does not resonate with me.
Grammatically, I am at a loss of such terms as "dimen," "joy hide," "Under new rule ride."
I love experimental poetry, but I am afraid this offering is too fragmented to make sense.

Your poetry is most interesting - somewhat cryptic and challenging too, but unique, thought provoking and original. The art of lying and deceiving is a game that can't be won - for the rule of truth comes back to bite!

This is a very interesting 5-7-5-7-7 poem.It can be seen through different angles and provide different meanings, but your subtle meaning behind "new rule" is obvious (at least for me) =).
Just one thing: Instead of "What a joy hide!" how about, "A joy to hide! -- It keeps with the 7 syllable requirement of the entire line and also reduces the grammatical shortcomings of "What a joy hide." I know that poems are often written in this manner, but in my opinion, if doesn't seem in tandem with the rest of the lines.

hahaha!
Thanks for the fun game in a poem, A. I saw the word immediately - though it helped that you had highlighted it, too. *smile* I love the message you're sharing about the dangers of lying. Thanks!

This is an excellent poem and a very nice picture of Chaz Bono. It's too bad there wasn't a contest category for it. You would have had sure winner on your hands.

Sorry, but this doesn't begin to make sense. It says nothing relevant or even understandable about truth, lies and the differences or similarities contained therein. Lines like...."Under new rule ride, Escape, void, love for self-pride" defy interpretation. What does that mean? Who knows, who cares? This is poor, lazy, sloppy writing, plain and simple. I won't sugarcoat it or blow sunshine up your kilt. The exclamation points don't help in any way. I would suggest you study sentence structure and the use of the definite article, and how verbs and nouns interact to construct and convey coherent thoughts. People giving this five stars are doing you no favors. Your writing needs a lot of work and should start with mastering the basics of the English language which I strongly suspect is not your primary tongue. Good luck.

Well done. You've penned a great poem here, dedicated to the truth. Yes, if people only knew and understood what truth is, they might well turn the troubles of this earth around. Well done, blessings, Roy
