Conspiracy Theory

Call me a conspiracy theorist, call me a liar
Cast stones to set my soul on fire
It will not change what I choose to see
I don't consider my brain to be less than thee
I've investigated, researched and done my part
To sort through information from the start
Hoping to make decisions that are best
Fight through corruption and let go of the rest
I do not judge those who differ with what they decide
But, false accusations will not make me run and hide

This is timely. We all have to do this "I've investigated, researched and done my part" And still, we might be given incorrect facts. Fact checking is not what it used to be. The standards are low now. Well done!

I also enjoyed your write Ms. Heidi. We are all different and bring our unique perspectives to the table. I just wish that as mature adults we could some how find a middle ground. Thanks for sharing this.

If only one would, people go with the tide and the wind and agree just to keep the peace with both sides of the spectrum, as for myself I do not believe in conspiracy theories. I thoroughly enjoyed your poem. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Just because others have different beliefs and follow the crowd so to speak, doesn't mean that they are right. Everyone is entitled to their views and people should respect each other on that. Well written Heidi, have a great week. Tom
