Truth’s Arrow
Who knows what is real
And what is not?
This whole ‘reality’
Could really be but
A clever ruse
-And us the unknowing
Participants
And yet,
Does it really matter?
Much is real that we don’t see
-atoms, Pluto, the hot glowing center of the Earth-
What difference would it make if
Something we thought
True
Turned false?
Lies only harm when broken
The truth only hurts when told
Who knows what is real
And what is not?
This whole ‘reality’
Could really be but
A clever ruse
-And us the unknowing
Participants
And yet,
Does it really matter?
Much is real that we don’t see

What difference would it make if
