A Tangled Web

The "blame game" is a flimsy shield
Where people try to hide...
A tangled web of "reasons"
Where some folks oft reside...

Blundering their way around
Bare practicality,
Running from the real facts
And facing truth's reality...

Lying sometimes to themselves
About the "nitty-gritty"
And building up a think facade
Which really isn't pretty.

Oh, how sad the blame game is...
A prison it can be.
Owning up to one's own faults
Will heal and set one free.

"Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom."
Psalm 51:6 KJV
