April PAD Challenge 2015 Day 15

Day 15
Prompt: pick an adjective, make it the title of your poem
*********************************************************************************

Diaphanous

in principle, it's all simple
truth will out, all comes to light
but if we trust the filming
industry, a closer look hides a lie

obscurity dulls your senses
unless you know exactly where
what is, and yet dark advances
mysteries burn and secrets flare

so, next time you go out or stay in
watching the night be born and the day die
wonder if you see more when the sun's not shining
or, if it is, you see more of the sky

April PAD Challenge 2015 Day 14

Day 14
Prompt: write an honest poem or write a dishonest poem
*********************************************************************************

honesty is hot tee

drunk in a gulp

before it's cooled

lies are lukewarm

water teasing

your thirst for truth

before you're schooled
