As Honest As I Could Be

So many things cause people to be less than honest and generally I would say that there is no reason to be dishonest. Well the more I investigate it the more I realize why there is so much dishonesty in the world. People even lie so they can lie. In the end, the truth can be buried over mountains of lies. The funny thing is when someone tell the truth and say “as honesty as I could be”. The truth is that they are acknowledging that they are liars.

 

As Honest As I Could Be

A strange statement that means nothing more

Such honesty is subjective so why ignore

Honesty boast by anyone must really be

Outline in this form, in all honesty

No one who is honest need point it out

Every honest action has a voice and will often shout

So observers will discern undoubtedly

The difference of lies and honesty

A respectable person said these words today

Shockingly ending them the same very way

I was as honest as I could be

Could we know the extent of his honesty

One could argue that he gave his best

Unable to give more than people will digest

Lots of what is said is controlled by what we’ll accept

Deceitfulness is used to ensure order is kept

But are we deciding for others and robbing them when we

Exercise the practice of “as honest as I could be”
