Truth Seeker - Constanza

Is it wrong to be curious Waiving scarlet badges as sleuths When seeking universal truths Dangling notions precarious Willing to eviscerate all Nimbly tantalize or extoll Worrisome beliefs fallacious Distorted enough to inflex Then twirl in a blurry vortex Dubious if not oblivious Seeking truths and taking the plunge Finding distortions to expunge Two cents short of being delirious Bubbling falsehoods bewilder Bundled lies for the coroner Is it wrong to be curious Dangling notions precarious Worrisome beliefs fallacious Dubious if not oblivious Two cents short of being delirious AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on July 18, 2020 for contest CONSTANZA sponsored by JOSEPH MAY and June 17, 2018 for contest EIGHT-WORD CHALLENGE-7 sponsored by JOHN HAMILTON

It's certainly not wrong to seek the truth, I wonder if when learned, it is really what we wanted. Excellent, thought provoking write, Line xxoo Happy Sunday

Thanks, Mike. Indeed, so often we think it's better not to know.
