Spiders weave an intricate web

of this a great deal can be said

Yet spiders are not the only ones to weave

many live with lies tucked up their sleeve

Some are liars and others live a lie

this behaviour often gives them a high

Liars seek attention and solidarity with others

they love to be surrounded by sycophantic brothers

 

Little of any real import have they to say

but a catalogue of lies can go a long way

They lie with profilgate fluency

and are prepared to use any currency

They lie with such alacrity

quite divorced from any reality

Liars begin to believe that their lies are the truth

and will fight to defend them nail and tooth

 

They defame the characters of the best

and relentlessly offer no rest

Their lies are toxic and wound the soul

and blacken good reputations with the stain of coal

Liars need good memories or so we are told

but in reality they don´t care and become quite bold

They don´t worry what they say if it gathers a crowd

and when in full flight they can be very loud

 

When the liar is eventually exposed

They cry the ´victim´on which all evil has been superimposed
