I know a man who eats his lies
And tells me that I should eat mine,
He mocks me for the truth I tell
And my preference for cheap wine.

Who is that man telling you that?
He'll never be happy and might die
because of the loneliness of his lies.
The truth will set you free.

As far as the last part goes,
I'll drink to that....(hick!).....
Currently making my own batch of wine which
I don't drink much of these days. I might drink two bottles a month. Family consumes the rest.
Get 30 bottles out of a batch about
4 bucks a bottle....not bad and good quality.

No, I don't eat flies either, ms. e . . . Well, unless they're chocolate covered. Thanks for the humor.

People who tell the truth do not do well: Jesus, Socreties, Galelio.
Piptalk is the place to tell those truths.
Here we can be honest.
"Honey does this dress make look fat?" my wife asks. An honest reply would be, "Honey, at five foot 2 and 250 lbs anything you put on makes
you look fat"  
Here is for some truth us: lies are the grease that society runs on.
This is why I am on piptalk: not to be great poet, but to tell truths

You have a lot of well-versed meaningful feeling about PiP and truth, rabittlover. This is certainly the place for that.
