Current Events-Lies


The Supreme Court must now decide
what constitutes a bare-faced lie.
And those, if said, would justify
to in the First Amendment hide.

Seems phony hero claimed his fame
through lies our precious ethos strain.
If that is sin, if profits reap,
our merchants would in jail cells heap.

So honored Judge, we know your plight.
Free speech is dear to us.
Don’t take from us one syllable,
but guard us all from lust.
