I remember asking a friend one night, “Do you say the truth or utter lies?”
He snapped his answer quick as fly, “I say the truth, but I half it hide.”
I went on thinking: he is right to hide the halves of what’s inside his mind: it’s his mind, not mine.
But now I’m wondering: if one half is mine, does he have the power on that second half,
Provided he shares it with his second wife? Is that half-truth or half-lie?
Well, this is not too hard to find: you swap the minds and switch the halves and
Now you have two husbands and a wife, which is as equal to hide.
You utter the first and sigh the last and have one husband and one wife
For him to see and for the last for whom you are the only half.
Now let me ask you the same again, “Do I say the truth or utter lies?”
