Nuh-Uh, Zebra

Posted for a variety of prompts: Friday Flash-55, Meme Express (“true or false”) and Rockin’ Chair Writers (“Tell us what’s really on your mind.”).

Nuh-Uh, Zebra –
A Limericked Flash-55 on One Who Colors to Connive

You know, I venture not to gripe,
Except your ever-changing stripe –
Prevaricating without end,
As daily, every truth you bend –
Transforms reality to hype.

A different colored horse are you.
Your utterances ne’er are true.
For black is white, and white is black;
Beginning, you’ve no turning back.
Deceit has tainted our lives blue.
