Truth – Pearls Before Swine
I just wanted to share a beautiful post on truth I came across at the PBS Blog – Pearls Before Swine, by Yecheilyah Ysrayl ( I like to call her E.C.). In a world we seem to be living in it seems that many are sometimes lost in wondering what truth means anymore. E.C. has written this poem on truth.
TRUTH
Truth is not debatable
for integrity defends itself
it is not held captive to the dogma of religion
or held bondage within the framework of theology
it is not trapped inside the walls of College classrooms,
or oppressed by the lips of Baptist ministers,
It wears no stars of David
Sings no Islamic melodies
Truth is not religious
And yet is no atheist
Truth has always been
And always will be
It is neither canonized
nor done away with
not stolen away
or traded amidst the bowels of slave ships
truth is not lynched,
nor shackled against the cages of fear
