Bo #1

Bo


G-d said to ask for just three days,

A well deserved vacation,

To serve our G-d without offense,

In a more discrete location.


We’d been driven way too hard this time,

Well beyond our legal capacity,

And been given His permission,

To fall back upon mendacity.


We had no intention to return,

But we never said we would,

And Pharaoh saw right through it,

And we all knew that he could.


But Pharaoh, he was desperate too,

He’d seen enough to know,

Things would keep on getting worse,

He’d better let us go.


Although our Avos also fibbed,

In compelling situations,

How are we to judge when truth is wrong,

And what’s right is fabrication?
