Gypsie’s Wonderful World of Words

Lie Legacy

Written by

In response to bwarren’s Sunday Whirl Wordle #722

Lies smell of demolished dreams
shaking chasms of arthritic hopes
Scam artists eager to turn
innocents into victims

Step into a legacy
of rich men’s promises
A chest full of empty emotion
sits molding with age
