TRUTH

TRUTH

What is truth, is it your truth?
My truth, to whom does truth belong.
Is it politicians truth- governments, Clergy
Or does truth belong to the "people".
Perhaps truth belongs to those who
 Create the false hood of their own truth.
When we "the people" search for truth we
Become lost in the "falsehoods" of centuries.
Machiavelli was the master of deception.
Though was cruelty, and bad faith his truth.
Where do we "the people" search for life truths.
In our hearts our souls, and in what we are told,
Or read truth as we might accept, and I emphasis might,
Become the chief law of all, "the people"
