Be forewarn
that when I write
my autobiography
I will lie;
Sometimes by exclusion,
omitting the unfitting
bits from my narrative.
Other times
by the blindness
and biasness
of being
so far removed
from the life
I wish you
to view.
As I strive
to write
about my life
in truth,
I will fail me
and you to,
but not for
lack of trying
to do right.
