The Grinning Truth

Saying it— the truth;

                   it leaves my lips—

	       the truth,

                   and enters your ears—

                            the truth,

                   making me free—

                            the truth,

                   making you understand—

                            the truth,

                   creating silence with sound—

                            the truth,

                   making me grin—

                            the truth.
