Georg, it has been a long while since I paid a visit to 'the Den', great poem with a very deep meaning. I hope to be back writing and posting soon, look for me, I always appreciated your reviews. Take it easy my friend and Brother in Arms.

Nice write, Georg

Actually Georg...you are correct technically about God creating truth and lie. God never lied...he only told the truth. However, he did create the angels which we know, one of them turned into Satan who told the first lie to Eve in the garden of Eden. So therefore, God only technically created the lie as he gave Adam and Eve as well as Satan and all Satans followers the freedom of choice and those who chose to obey chose the way of the Creator and those who chose to follow what is against God fell by the wayside. God and Jesus are not one person or entity but are one in spirit and are indeed separate beings as the bible clearly shows in several passages. "Those who have seen me have seen my father" does not mean seeing physical beings but the spirit and personality of God and the son as again, being one. What Jesus taught is the truth of Gods will.

Well said, George. Africans say, if you bury truth here it will show up there, so better tell the truth than being exposed. In another version about truth we say: Truth and Teeth should be whitened, they will come out by all means. Thanks my friend.

I Love It Georg..
and also I love to be hurt with the truth
rather than destroyed with a lie
So Hit Me Hard!! I Like It..
and Love It even if it hurts...
can I get a Hell-Yeah?!

I like the diversity and lightness of touch in these four lines, Georg. Your worldviews are remarkable and very often unique, so thank you for sharing. Love the second, especially... lies ARE anaesthesia, aren't they?! :)) xx

Very well summed-up in four lines, Georg

How others build a web, one lie at a time as you tell one, you have to tell another to cover it and so the web begins. Love it Georg.

Your Newfie friend Hugs, Rose

Where is the web of truth... How I like that.
I won't go on. Learn 4 line chinese poetry, you'll be a master of it. In fact you are maybe without knowing. I loath Haiku but love the Chinese 4 line.
So much observation here!!!

I enjoy these philosophical slices that you share with us, Georg. Thank you. Love and peace to you,

Regis

one must be an expert in word play
as lawyers are, in their courts of shame
and politician are in bending that fine line
Of little white lies.......

Interesting perspective here Georg. I like the crutches of differing lengths picture. I think God is truth and he created beauty/satan who later became the father of lies. And oh what a web he created. Truth often hurts, you are right, but lies hurt more. Well penned. Hugs, J

The truth is, that truth stands on its own...and as for a lie...easy in the beginning...but sooner or later, it just becomes a "tangled web."

Thought provoking write!

Peace,
Dayvid

Dear Georg, well done. If lies can help you the truth can save you.
Love Emile.

A lot to think about in four lines for sure...but is it true...or a lie?

HI GEORG, AND I GUESS YOU KNOW...I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE LAST LINE. JESUS SAID,....'I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIGHT'...ALSO...'I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE'...AND...'THOSE WHO HAVE SEEN ME, HATH SEEN THE FATHER', THEREFORE; GOD IS TRUTH. BUT, THE INSTITUTOR, THE FATHER OF LIES, IS SATAN; THE FIRST LIE WAS TOLD TO EVE IN THE GARDEN....'THOU SHALT NOT SURELY DIE'....PERSONALLY, I LOVE THE 'CRUTCH' OF TRUTH, I 'NEED' IT. THANKS FOR SHARING AND MUCH LOVE AND BLESSINGS, JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

"God created Truth and Lie, like a pair of crutches of different length".

Intereseting anology; love it, Georg (and you most of all)! Well done; bravo!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in America, Karen Lynn in Texas. :D

God created Truth & Lie, like a pair of crutches of different length.

Perfect. Patrick

Truth stands tall on it's own. Say it once and then your done. A lie brings many webs crowding one another. The lie is always easier at first, and then it just multiples. Very good analgy of Truth & Lie. It is true that the truth stings at first but then goes away. The lie will continue on until finally TRUTH prevails!
Take care my friend. ~HUGS, Chessly

"With anesthesia,"

I love that one.

No one should believe the two elder Ed's, as they wouldn't know truth if it came up and bit them on the nose...only I, the angel of the three can you or anyone believe...;-) ed

so well done-truth for sure!

The funny thing is truth stands on its own. The lie must be constantly updated, massaged, repeated, etc.

Now this is thought provoking!

The truth be told, you might be on to something there, but then I'm not sure if you're telling the truth either, just the same the line you shoot are good, ha. Jasmin Horst

Georg, four very good line, indeed.

Cheers,
Dan

Another thought provoking write dear Georg..Truth be told many live in the house of lies...

Much peace, love and light,
Amber

If there’s a web of lies…where is the web of truths?

If only we could find it. And I'm gonna keep searchin for that web, in the old Ed Cave.

WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Liana Margiva

The philosophy of Buddha tries to explain what truth is, but since God is truth, we have invented the lie.
