If you were looking
for an antidote to hate

where would you begin?
~

Prevention beats cure.

Vaccinate your heart against

politics and religion.

What must we do to

open ourselves to beauty,

truth and compassion?

Look upon the world

with clear eyes, open minds,

and hearts unhardened by fear.

What Remains

Posted by 2garrabrants

Truth and opinion

both clouded my history;

how can we know what is what?

~

Truth is what remains

when everything cloudy has

been allowed to drift away.

And The Truth Shall Set You Free

Posted by 2garrabrants

Why is it so hard

to hear the truth when spoken

from the mouths of enemies?

~

We are conditioned 

to believe the enemy

always lies by bad leaders.

How might we look past

the ridiculous and find

the truly sublime?

~

The subliminal 

message is often hidden

within ridiculousness.

Can we find magic

when all that held us spellbound

has been swept away?

~

One finds true magic

only when all illusions

have been swept away!

When Truth Comes

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

Are seekers of truth

content with endless searching

or is it more like… tenure?

~

There are some who seek

and some who sit. Truth’s visits

leave them both content.

The Truth Is Out There

Posted by 2garrabrants

If it is true that

time will tell, does space join in

and reveal all too?

~

Neither space nor time

are tabloids or worse, Fox News!

Gentlemen don’t kiss and tell!

What magical words

allow us to deliver

unpleasant truths, painlessly?

~

Magic lies not in

the words, but in the spirit

in which they’re spoken.

When confronted by

harsh and bitter, unpleasant

truth, what is the best response?

~

Because the truth can

 set us free, we must embrace

unpleasant liberators.

No Beyond

And while we’re looking
beyond obvious meanings,
what’s up with the nightly news?

~

Whether night or day,

the news, though changing, remains

the same -some good, mostly bad.
