When your past performance is under investigation <br />Is there a time when questioning goes over the line… <br />An intrusion on your personal life causes hesitation <br />In your mind it seems best to lie rather than define <br /> <br />There are various degrees of lying…Is it ever justifiable? <br />In the eyes of the legal system there are no exceptions <br />Does lying about a shameful mistake equal disreputable? <br />Right or wrong perception allows for no exemptions <br /> <br />Has the sinner already been systematically condemned? <br />Should there be any variation from standard rational… <br />Has responsibility to an elected profession been lessened? <br />Should extramarital pleasure send an offical to hell? <br /> <br />1/31/08<br /><br />Theresa Ann Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lying-under-oath/
