Truth Can Be Unshrouded

Truth

Truth can be unshrouded.

The Father of

Lies.. has infinite veils.

Caesar needs no sleeves

of violent machine gun shells.

When Caesar tells the truth

joy rings out from bells.

The sun comes out unclad

by cloaking clouds...

Newly birth trailing

l radiant umbilical

cumulus cord.



As dreams sleepsired

are destroyed by first light

so truth is the foe

of the falsehoods of night



NOAM CHOMSKY



To pass through the mines

liarseeded

in the field of truth



sing the truth.. or make a joke of it

or paint portraits with words

or paint without the lilygilding

of criticism

or be as calm as Noam Chomsky


Author's Notes/Comments: 

Conversations With God:
Words are the least
reliable purveyors of
truth.
