Truth Lies
Truth a word in tegrous clawed
Regal right admitted awed
Under spell of power old
Time has held it to be told
Hiding naught and standing bold
While the wicked ways of man
Indicate that no one can
Lie in true evasion
Let a pure and simple fool
Offer this assertion
Underneath each lie that's told
There lies a seed of truth
