Secrets
Do state secrets still matter much?
What is so horrible they would reveal
That could really astound as such
Though most horrible are the most real
Compile some selected facts
Into a confident narrative
Bolster it by the visual acts
To make it look imperative
Call all the other theories
Conspiracy and populism
Never mind about your inquiries
That speak of the other ism
States keep their secrets because
Not everything they like to show
No time for repentance, no remorse
For the truth that is kept unknown.
