The Truth and Nothing More


Is there one Truth
that is not a desert
of shifting sand?

The truth?

The truth is
that the Truth
is a spiritual thing,
and nothing more.

Truth

And nothing more than
Something else that dampens sand
To make mud a mound
So lizards can dart atop
Snapping in tongues at insects.

What rings
true will shatter
dead terrors like a glass.
But once its note is sung, truth falls
silent.
