Of Truth and Perception

The truth shines out, but not always
For she is one proud wench, the Truth
To only the honest seeker does she reveal self
To the hubristic body, to the conceited elf
The truth stays hidden, in sooth....

The truth shines out, but not always...
For perception and not lie is her deadliest foe
Loud thoughts in the head do drown fact
Ill-convictions can heavily distract
And the wind of truth cannot invariably blow
