Thinker's

I do not in opposition lie, To those who ponder how and why. For clearly one must contemplate, The world in which we operate. The facts of human history. Retold in shrouded mystery. Create a woven web of deceit. Causing man’s folly to repeat. Blinders of hatred move the masses. Seeing only half empty glasses. Spinners of narratives all gory, Create a false national story. Wisdom a voice which only whispers. Drowned from noise of whirling twisters. Howling voices of false choices. Hell’s grand chorus now rejoices. Man’s mind a powerful weapon, But ever prone to deception. It must be trained in the Light, For it to discern wrong from right.

'Wisdom a voice which only whispers' -- Great line, Kenneth. The truth certainly gets drowned out, especially today, by all the shouts. ~ Gershon

So true! If you’re not in the light, you see nothing. We should not be spoon fed but rather debate different ideas. If there’s no debate, great deception lurks.
