Undeniable

a decuain

Undoubtedly, some statements are untrue; 
No dispute, the speaker is out of place. 
Denial of facts without follow through;
Empathy missing; the style, in your face.
Negativity, the way to showcase
Indemnity for faults critics might find.
Accusations searched out from cyberspace
But blame haphazardly changes its mind.
Lying is accepted, in fact embraced;
Excuses now tolerated and graced.
