Of Truths And Lies

CATEGORY

Much has been written on truth and lies,

And it remains that of the two, truth remains

True and the tentacles of lies, remain lies.

 

America, America, a land conceived in truth;

Born and raised a lie; nourished by full breasts

Dripping with the milk of negative goodness:

 

In her beginnings, America penned a great truth

To be lived out a great lie…all men…equally created…

Endowed with certain rights…inalienable…liberties…

 

Pursuit of happiness…implying freedom, justice

And equality:  all implied truths

Cloaked, daggered, and veiled in cunning lies.

 

Yet, it cannot be denied that America has treated

All of its people of color equally; for she has indeed

denied them all—equally—their evident inalienable rights.

 

Indeed, in America, bigotry and racism has always been

Democratic, without prejudice to none, and assured

To all who are of color; and that’s no lie!  It’s the truth!
