Shadows Within the Blind Spot

Knowledge is the key in this modern world 
the truth can neither deceive nor be deceived 
a fractured coil has so many errors to put right 
very hard to know where to start or begin directing 
powdering over them dusting every cobweb in years researching
My God as so big and so strong and so mighty 
There is nothing my God cannot do 
to be brutally honest from the heart existing 
banks are now disguised as a country stealing wealth 
I do not understand a vast majority of people these days 
there is no point in beating around the bush with tender words 
it feels like one has entered a different world filled with bitterness 
everything revolves around hating something or someone 
The silence is deafening when you use a bit of logic 
anti social has used a net covering putting a blanket over facts 
deeper and deeper they sink beneath human dignity 
No respect for Wisdom challenging them to a debate without conflict 
to learn is to be quick to listen when instructing the ignorant speaks with volume cowards 
quite as a mouse then will begin to listen under troubled gnashing teeth 
lost cursing is their only educated reply throwing a few blind personal words in reply of the subject 
declaring war under radical terms examined without foundations 
We cannot undo the past we need to fact check what lies ahead of us 
St Agustine of Hippo said 
People hate the Truth for the sake of whatever it is they love more than the truth 
they love truth when it shines warmly on them and hate it when it rebukes them 
Faith is to believe what you do not see 
the reward of Faith is to see what you believe
