Blunt honesty
There is no substitute for truth
Lies paint pretty pictures
But dull the punch
Pain can be pleasure (bite me)
When desired for effect
Change can be like that
One hundred becomes a tip
A blurry buzz in return
Morning heaves of prayer
Gods do not answer
They are honest to a fault
No pretty pictures in store
The bowl reflects
The source of the deposit
In one way
Out the same
But changed
Grasp the rim
A firm fixture
That does not lie
