Truth is Peace or it would be
Truth is Peace - or it would be..
Someone once told me
that truth was only
'in the eye of the beholder'
Truth is - as truth is agreed upon
society calls this then
its truths - of course,
It depends perhaps
can we not see our own flaws,
or more importantly our misdeeds?
Look around you - and you will find that
the truth is something
much more than any inane obscure
and unreliable message,
corrupted,
by half remembered dictated
and disfigured lies..
No, an enlightened concept,
yet tangible in a sense
to those aware and
awake enough
to see untruths,
so very easily distinguishable
and anyway - all around us.
Truth is peace surely ?
First though - some observation,
seeing things - as they really are
What must be present behind
the fog in the minds,
of the disabled, frightened
hampered masses to wit;
one can see truth
when one can fully see the lies
that have been
perpetrated ad infinitum
to manipulate humanity
the forsaken masses
that are coincidentally blind
for eternity or
revealed plausibility,
only the individual
can view what he sees
with his own heart,
his insight, his provoking senses
his mind's eye must penetrate through
the lie of the life
he has
been living.
Truth is peace,
it must exist as opposed
to the wretched lies.
It could be said then,
to be only and exactly
the opposite
to what we see around us,
that could and ought to be
known as the sort of truth
we can all
aspire to, appeal for,
If they will not listen - we may have to - you and I,
insist upon it now.
The stakes are just too high.
The essence of
and the epitome of
the other side to what we have,
to what we know and are forced
to accept now,
as any sort of truth.
Don't you know a lie when you hear it
when you see it?
you ought to.
For all conflict is based upon it
that all generations have known.
Our senses have been
so well and subversively
hindered smothered
and consistently decapitated
for reasons only
now apparent.
Truth is peace.
Wars of course, are based on lies
Look, really look - that we could see
truths previously hidden behind
such inanimate objectivity
Remember that,
the opposite of truth
must be vigorously maintained
for evil to work at all.
Lies are crass and mortal significances,
portrayed as all there is to know.. perhaps.
Know the lies, see the truth
As it is
And it is and can only really be
- peace.
Truth could reign over all
that would use their eyes
to look but rather see.
Indefinitely this is truth
Wouldn't you agree ?
