Truth

The spirit or the flesh? They are really one-in-the-same, internals and externals of creation -- the face read-out of our inner clockworks -- to review man, his myriad of entangled relationships, is to begin to understand The Politics of Satan vs God We can fool the Soulless press, often co conspirators in illusion -- Truth more likened to the quizzical eyes of children~ amazed, confounded, and then, lost....

As Pilate asked Jesus - What is truth? Perhaps it lay only in the eye of the beholder.

Absolutely! For those who see clearly, as Christ saw, Truth is clearly seen in the eyes of the beholder. In the eyes of the beholder. Self evident. Truth is always true.

Hey Joe... Your critique of the "Soulless press" as a “co-conspirator” in the distortion of reality highlights a skepticism toward mainstream narratives, juxtaposed with the innocence of children whose “quizzical eyes” embody unfiltered wonder and authentic perception. However, the closing line, "and then, lost..." evokes a sense of loss—perhaps the inevitable fading of truth or purity as we grow older and become entangled in societal illusions.

poem invites us to question where genuine truth lies, suggesting it may exist outside societal constructs

The universal issue of sovereignty on full display. Most are ignorant as to what is really going on in the invisible realm

The invisible, at the purest level of expression, is the real unchangeable. As I see it. The outside is ephemeral. Blessings my friend. I am honored by your profound insight.
