Integrity Tested


Down ,down goes the  lies.

Wrapped up with many tries,

Concealing each other in  a dice,

Forging  ruthless flies.

 

 


Truth stands alone,

In a  flattery zone,

Where it is  thrown

By the windy blown.

 

 


Yet it stands up above,

The restless  grove,

Of tantalizing move,

And disquieting  rove

 

 


It  hovers  over a platitude,

Of infirm fortitude,

Going through a coveted  ingratitude,

As it accost a rebellious latitude.

 

 


It resists the tempting allure,

By holding a stately demur,

As it  shunning the facile glamour,

With a shielding   armour.

 

 


Integrity clones with  honesty

By slicing the fiction out of the  priority,

As it accepts  the directions of morality,

By discarding the dubious   activity.

 

 


Integrity undergoes  much  hardship,

As it gets battered by the whip,

Still it bears the tedious strip,

With a poised  graceful flip
