Truth Has No Needs

Folder: 
Truth

Truth can not be deleted

dilated or diluted.

Truth is the sun..

always shining

no matter how many

clouds occlude.





Truth needs no

Madison Ave. sales

only heroes

to her light unveil.

Truth needs no judgmental speech

to detract from

the sheer power

of her description.

Truth is a lily

who needs no gilding

WAXWINGS



A lie has wings of wax.

In the sun they do  not wax.





GEORGE WALLACE



When found the source

of our peritonitis

will evening night us?

will they knight us?



(Wallace, said Newsweek, would not have contracted

peritonitis after a bullet ripped through his intestines

had he not just eaten a hamburg)
