Short Truthless Poems

Truth as we see it
Is not as we’d choose it.
The true say “so be it,”

First to the moon
     first to Mars

     here's what we're like ~
   Execrable, ruthless
     wicked, truthless...

Maya Angelou proclaiming
She knows why the caged bird sings
While a raven Says forevermore
Brings to mind Edgar Allan Poe

Sir Walter Raleigh did inspire
with his poem "Like truthless dreams my Joys expire"
Emily Dickenson gave us many wonderful verses
"Apparently with no surprise"  being among the first

For sonnets with poetic flair
None can compare

Truthless,
I was searching the self, 
in truth of life.

It leaves many
questions, unanswered.
There was import-

heat would kill
ordinary answers.

You can tear up,
a mountain to release
the particles,

although invisible.
You stretch out your hands
to collect black currants.

For a kick-start
you start shouting.
I am the truth !
