What is truth?
Is it the end of all things
or the beginning
too often it is
what we make of it
it is injustice
made to feel righteous
it is the coming cut
before the threat appears
done, it is said
for the sake of being prepared
what is truth?
it is pain for pain
and eye for eye
tooth for tooth
truth is a puppet
on a string
made to dance
to our desires
truth is not truth
when it is our mistress
only
when it is our master
