Lie

A lie slipped out like
Eels through a rocky
River bottom.
Just like that,
You pushed it out
No effort, no thought.
Silly things that
Really don't matter,
I could challenge you.
Why should I though?
What you are doing
Hurts no one
Except maybe yourself.
It used to matter
That someone got one
Over on me,
And now, it doesn't.
