This week's writing prompt is write a poem with 31 words. This is a revision of one of my older poems. It's really abstract, but I heard a few poems in the Writers' Conference this summer that had a certain riddle-like quality and I wanted to capture that. Unfortunately, the spacing is not what I intended (there's more white space), but here's the text.

Poem of Lies
There is always some measure of a lie
in telling the woman I love
she's beautiful
so when I tell you
you're beautiful
I mean really beautiful
you know I mean it.
