Many people nowadays rely heavily on indirect language, innuendos, and double meanings to express their ideas and then try to cover up their dishonesty.
It's even worse when the speaker starts to believe their own lies and considers them to be true. In the past, this type of talk was called double-speak or double-talk, and in earlier times it was referred to as the "Turn of A Phrase," where the speaker skillfully manipulated the topic to change its direction.
Whether through eloquence or wit, they could shift the emphasis and guide the conversation to a different point altogether.

"From the cover to the poems, it exudes a love of life. Strengths include tone and insight. These poems are heartfelt and speak of both struggle and wisdom. They communicate directly, heart to heart, from the poet to the reader."
~Writer's Digest Magazine Review
"This is a collection of poetry and at the same time a story. Unlike the majority of poetry books I've read, you can see there is a cadence to it that isn't confined to each poem, connecting them in such a way that you see a path, almost a journey to their rhythm.as individual pieces. You can read it as one collection and you can also read it as individual poems. Each poem will bring about a different reaction. There's a wide range here, from poems filling several pages with thought to poems that are abrupt and succinct. I found it engaging, entertaining, and thought provoking."
