When Truth Came a Calling

There's A knock on my door, I ask "who is there". ? Standing there are five faces. . They answer" IN UNISON "Truth" I ask" Why the disguise"...? It is I,"Truth" they all refrain. How will I know which one of you is to cross my threshold, Let us all in and you will figure it out in the end. "No" I shouted I will never- I will dismiss the one in front he is much too "Clever". Now there are four. Who shall I leave to come through my door. The next one began to explain, every reason he should entrance gain, a very convincing argument, I exclaimed, "Go away you are nothing but" Rhetoric"; Everyone knows that the truth is Plain. Now standing there in front of my door left three, The next one to speak was beautiful, and very sexy... "let me in, and I will prove I am truth. You knew my mother her name was Ruth". No! -You cannot lure me with sex I read the story of your mother and interpreted well. If you do not leave my door I will surely get vexed. Now that I sent all but two away, It was easier to tell , Who was left to welcome in.. Which of these two should enter my abode? I had to ponder as to What truth really meant. Was it something to be applied like a first aid kit.? Is it true, that the truth is sometimes ugly, and always plain? Will the truth set you free after the pain. Hmm... I pondered some more and let them both in. One was life and one was death- One was yen and one was yang. Truth number one started to speak, He said: "No" The truth is not always in plain sight Sometimes you have to search for it ! And:"Yes", The truth can be ugly at times, but you were right; Real truth never wears a disguise. Some truth is Imagined and real truth's are universal Depends on the mindset of the thinker. What he perceives to be real- has had many rehearsals; As his thoughts have been trained - as to what he see's, knows and feels. The truth is not convoluted, nor contrived,and you will always KNOW more than you think you do; When the truth arrives. When you enjoy the lies, and the rhetoric, It's because the lies you believe, benefit you, Though PREJUDICE eyes can barely RECOGNIZE the TRUTH again ever. And so you will remain as a BIAS SLAVE, To the self seeking lies forever. We are truth,they lamented- We are the wide and the narrow THE good,THE bad, The HAPPY, The SAD- LIFE AND THE DEATH. THE YEN AND THE YANG. WE DO NOT CHANGE- ACCORDING TO WHAT YOU BELIEVE-WE ARE A CONSTANT- AND WE ARE also CHANGE. There was a knock on my door-- Someone had come, disguised as one of truth's predictions. Somehow he has come to blame the innocent victims. I prayed for my secret eye to be opened, and my judgement to be discerning. Because the truth, as it seems, I am learning. Is subject to Interpretation. And before "Truth" left my home, I was told. Man cannot reason out, that which he does not understand- If he thinks he understands the proof but calls upon no spirit to discern - He alone, is unable to interpret the truth
