the truth will set us free


meandering in an endless rain forest
is a deer with soft antlers
all alone sniffing its path amongst
the dense and thick grass
it can't find its way for the trees
are just blocking the light

in the meantime a blind human
is feeling through the tracks of life
without sight his cane is only his guide
tapping, feeling, hearing then walking
gently and gingerly at the cemented
pavement that is harsh if his gait
will miss the mark

in another region of the earth
lived an honest woman
without a doubt she trust
and depend on the simple
notion that people are good
not stealers, not liers, not users
but dependable and right

on the contrary there is a
wolf that lived nearby
untamed, unloved, wild
it charged and charged
and aimed its teeth to
an unsuspecting prey as
it died and was eaten
as a game, alas

in life there are predators
as there are benefactors
there are users as there are saints
there are gamers as there are believers
so to get inside their minds is
to lay a trap, an unsuspecting trap
that they'll be caught and can not
deny for once, defeated in their game
the truth is here to be laid at last...
