Getting away with lying ‘skill’
                                        is spinning off such sinful wheels!

                            And every other gimmick
                          Does that from the beginning.
        When envy has been overgrown,

                                             to keep it deeply as your own
                        It starts a play from Dante’s acts:
                         to find the way to twist the facts!


                                       II


        “White lies” are moved by noble aims,

                                         to soften truth and heal a pain


        But good intentions are inflamed
                                      by paving ways to hell’s terrains,


        Delusions last a lifetime long,

                                  until truth proves that lies are wrong

        Besides, Kant also could explain

                                      such liars’ shameless selfish gain.

        Some also lie to fit desire to smear

                                           one who should be admired,

        They’re seeking weeny little flaws,


                                         inflating logs from tiny straws
        Their envy seeks “equalities”


                                               to cover losers’ qualities.
