You do adhere to your self-proclaimed syllable count. So that is good.
You punctuation combined with the odd syntax completely obscures the meaning of this verse.
Unfortunately, the author's notes written in a similar style did not clarify this for me.
The last line:What a joy hide! Makes no sense.
I am giving you a 4 for keeping to your form ... you lose the star for not making your meaning clear.
Hugs, d

This is an interesting piece. It has a nice duality, but despite the duality I feel a strong political air. Good work and good luck.

Here we have a Tanka formatted 5-7-5-7-7 poem that speaks to truth and lies. You lay out how a lie is easier and truth often too hard. Certainly expresses the human condition. Many liars in the world, some lost to their own truth. Thoughtful. Compelling!

I don't like it when lines end with the same word - "truths" in your case.
the exclamations in the second line interrupt the flow and I'm not sure if on the best place possible.(I don't mind the exclamation at the very end, it fits there)

THANKS.
Comment from Benjamin Valencia
Hello Alcreator Litt Dear. Suppression of truths known only to God is the greatest gift of free-will. I enjoyed your use of self-pride and the rhyming scheme behind ride and hide. The joy in writing our own rules sometimes against our own majesty's principles of high. Good luck and cheers.

Ah............. I very much agree.................... Lying is a HUGE no no, and yes, people do it mostly for self-pride, not wanting to admit that they did something wrong and seem like a bad person. So true. Good poem!

You, my friend are brilliant and a wise tease. This is so true that sometimes it is so easy to tell a white lie to make things easier for the person who receives the lie and the person telling the lie. You handled this in a lying style in this poem of yours which is a classic.
Well done
you rock, my man
Cool bananas and warm regards

Its about lying. What could you be if you could live by your lie. What lies could you feel. How far would you get if you lied your way there.What could you be if your lies new no limits. You could be super man if you actually lied to yourself convincingly enough. No foundries. Its all in you mind how you present you image to big wall street thugs. You could lie about the forged info you just read on last night alpha rhythms by a brilliant man and pass them off as you own. You could make a world for yourself out of your lies if your really good. Lying not recommended.
