Newly married man;
Wife made best meal she knew how.
Husband loved: a lie.
Stomach, day by day,
His repulsion enduring,
Same meal he received.
Stopped with honesty:
He cared not for it, never.
Served that meal no more.
Waxing didactic,
Say not, “I like” when not true,
Lest you reap encore.
Regarding a meal,
Natural pigmentation hid
By purple or red,
Movie or series,
Favorite sport or hobby;
Say not, “yea”, if “no”,
Lest thy discontent
Of thy fabrication born,
Fill eyes with sorrow.
