The World is in a Whirl

     The world is in a whirl
        whizzing its way along
     Topsy-turvy, turvy-topsy
        straight lines all curvy

     What is asked from us
        but to exit that bus
     to escape the crush 
        to avoid the rush

     To slow down and find
        truth amidst the hush

It is so hard to find these days Gershon. Research and common sense helps some what. Thanks for sharing...

Just find a comfy spot and "let it whirl". "the truth is true and all is well, unconquerable life prevails"...not sure where I heard that but it stuck with me.

Hi Gershon I think the truth no longer exists.
