Best Construction

Martin Luther had it right,
Explained "False Witness" sensibly,
Not only avoiding lies' dark blight,
But allow for the best graciously.

The words may have a dubious sound,
The act seem most unfitting,
But, if we should with grace abound,
To condemn them won't be flitting.

The remedy of attitude,
Look well at our deduction.
Before we label, "evil," "rude,"
Place on all the "best construction."
