Lies And Deception (Limerick and Haiku Prompt 5)
Today’s limerick and haiku theme is lies and deception. First, my limerick:
“Your excuse simply can’t be believed.
You’re a liar! I feel quite deceived,”
Said the gal, as she wept,
To her lover, who’d slept
With her mother. (I guess she was peeved.)
And now, my haiku:
People who maintain
That they are always honest
Are surely lying.
Your assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to write a limerick or haiku (or both) about lies and deception. When you’ve posted your verse, please return here and add a direct link to your themed poetry.
(If you need some tips on limerick or haiku writing, I link to some helpful sites here.)

Haha. Love your limerick!
OK, so this could be breaking the rules. Please don’t ban me :)
Why does he lie, still
When everyone knows the truth
Kind of sad, really
Thanks, Bone for your kind words and your haiku.
is it too late to post??
