Truth is wrapped
in a bundle
—dead in the trunk—
in its place is
nine parts junk
Mr. Twain
hit the nail
on the head
when he said
Artificial intelligence
is so popular because
genuine intelligence
got buried
Say one true thing
to me
and nine lies
then I'll surmise
that you're
an honest human
and I am
Marilyn Monroe
