Without Rhyme or Reason

Something for each episode, told in verse. This is a personal challenge from me to me, as a way to stretch my writing muscles by doing something different. Warning: poetry ahead.

14. The Man on the Fairway

* Deception *

.

.

.

A tiny lie
but a lie nonetheless

.

A lie to a supervisor
instructions ignored
for more important work

.

A lie to a young man
silence stands in
for friendship

.

A lie to a subordinate
challenging perception
leaving fear, wariness

.

A lie to a partner
brief separation
absence denied

.

A lie to self
a daughter's pain
unacknowledged
