There is a fine line between truth and not truth.

Truth? What is that?

by RFL

Survival, torture, death!

Can we take a breath?

No, we don’t learn or care

about others, here’s a dare:

In the depths of our souls

Do we care about polls?

Who is popular? Who wears

The face or clothes of tears?

Get on your high promontory

Post a sick comment or life story.

Think you are so great because

You finally found Santa Claus.

Finding Claus is like finding God

Maybe they live in the same pod

That you don’t want to believe

And so you continue to grieve

About all that is wrong with us --

The sickness, the hiding, the pus.

Keep it up, all those infectious lies

Masking the truth that always dies.
