why tell the truth anymore?

no use
in telling the truth anymore.
why,
when no one listens
or believes you.
why not lie instead,
embellish, exaggerate, make
up a new
life story,
rewrite
your own book.
a revisionist  history.
who's to know in a hundred
years,
or tomorrow
for that matter.
clean the slate,
grab a pen and a sheet
of white paper
then begin
all over again.
