Honesty

Informationsaturation,

Overload…Overload.

Whatto think… who to believe.

Whichcan to kick down a dusty road.

 

Whendid sincerity morph into whimsy?

Wherewas integrity banished to hide?

Howcan I sort through the flotsam encountered

Whiletaming the beast in life’s carnival ride?

 

Truthis the pillar, the mainstay, the

Linchpinof human morality and intervention.

Whenhonesty waivers it dies of corruption

Tiltrust is destroyed beyond all recognition.

 

Andwe are the weavers,

Theguardians of truth,

Theprim and the pious who spearhead the way.

Wecannot cede or renounce our position

Lestdevastation conquers the day.

 

Andwhen in the end we come back to the fold

Wherelaughter and logic abound,

It’shonesty’s voice that gives us the choice

Tospeak out without making a sound.
