For the Truth

People who see
          things differently 
   are those whom 
you may trust 
     if you don't believe 
that 
    then you are wrong
Now that light is shining 
     down  upon us 
  our songs are something 
that untold millions 
]        should hear 
  Bring out your old recordings 
Let beautiful music 
set you free!

re your comment on existential, it is meant to concentrate your thought on the words in order to show the human and spiritual situation or status quo, or whatever it is that is eternal and edifiying, or not as the case may be. thank you for contacting me Matthew.

I always admire people who provide new perspectives on things. One example: only a little boy said the emporer had no clothes. Then the rest of the crowd felt like fools. I often turn to youtube and let those old tunes carry me down memory lane. Hope you're enjoying the novel, Matthew. Love, Carolyn

Interesting how you used two things I found different to create one poem. You are different, Matthew, and I guess that means you can be believed!! soupmail.
