In response to and inspired by InYaChest's video entitled, "The DUMBEST LIES men tell".
Men lie, women lie, we all lie to different degrees.... but when men lie, they do so horribly and at the dumbest things. Just be real. This is Am Fib Ali:
His charisma seized me;
Boastful struts towards my direction.
His words were crafted
To captivate my total attention.
Paragraphs filled with glam,
Making claims to make one gawk.
Yet, I quickly realized,
It's all just pretentious talk.
My mm-hms and uh-huhs
Filled between his pauses and rests.
Womp Womp Womp Wua.......
His voice faded, along with my interest.
Why start off with lies,
Of possessions and pseudo-success
Like I'm some dummy,
Vulnerable to petty attempts to impress.
That's ok, I'll move
"On to the next one"
My phone chimed twice
Announcing a text message arrival.
"Boo, I miss you"
Like I'm Jane stranded in a jungle.
Boy, didn't we just speak?!
Do, tell! What exactly do you miss?
Words need to be verified;
How 'bout you add action to the mix.
He professes, "I love you,"
After just a week- what insanity!
Intuition kicks in,
I sense deceit via ambiguity
The truth will prevail
Sweet nothings draw to one conclusion-
Nothing-- but motives
To taint my "sweetness" with seduction.
It echoes through my head,
"Baby, you know you're the only one"
He began to call me Tia--
Caught himself, then ended with, "Hun"
For how many seconds
Does that statement hold true?
Or am I the only one,
When I'm standing in front of you?
I thought you were smart;
You thought you were too,
Which made you mistake me
For some type of fool.
Each time you lie,
I tally it up in my head.
Strike one, strike two...
I'm fed up of being misled.
Skip Strike 3,
You're out! Enough of your quibble!
Take your things,
'N here's a Kleenex for the dribble....

P.S. The title of this poem is a mere phonetic break down of the word Amphiboly to create an emphasis on the word Fib.
Blowing steam thru poetry. Expressing emotion metaphorically. Coupled lines concise memory. Painting pictures phonetically.

That Moody Juice
Sometimes its hard to pinpoint what exactly you are feeling..... Everything contributes to your mood. Written back in 2008, this is That Moody Juice:
Mixed emotions
Stir within me
Like a blender.
The big chunks diminish
Into a mushed up paste
Thinner and thinner.
Can no longer tell
One from the other.
What is this?
What am I feeling?
I no longer know.
I know the ingredients
But cannot distinguish
Them from the mix.
Separate them I cannot,
Now they are one.
This chemical bond,
Scientists don't know
How to separate.
This physical bond,
Too strong to pry
Many fail when they try.
So leave it as it is.
Don't water it down,
Drink it as it is.
With its richness,
Its thickness,
And its "mmm mmm good"ness
These emotions supply
My tank when it's on E.
When there's nowhere to turn,
I go crazy
Cause my tank is full
From that blended beverage.

Now Accepting Applications
Keep in mind this poem was written when I was 18 in 2008 and felt like moving on from a relationship that went sour. I was "Now Accepting Applications".... and always until a man wed mi up.
Its that time again
When my staff is insufficient
Actually, a lil less than insufficient
It's more like non-existent
I have no one in that position
The most important one to be filled
Duties include running errands
Ranging from boring to extra thrilled
Yes, the sign is now up.
The big "Now Hiring" here
Just take an application
And fill it out with care
Don't write to please me
Nor write to simply fill in blanks
Be truthful on the form
'Cause honesty isn't stored in banks
Start at the top of the page
Your REAL and complete name please
Include birth date and social security
And don't forget, include any disease
All of the above are necessary
All of the above I need
If you don't provide ALL info
I will discard it and it I'll never read
I'm sorry to inform you
This job must go unpaid
If you are lucky to get the position
Love and memories will be our trade
What position is open?
Why is this application so important to send?
I'm asking single Males age 20 and up
How'd you like to be my full-time Boyfriend?

P.S. the minimum age for applicants is always 2 years above my current age. :)
