Truth

Life and society
In all their variety
Have always asked the question.

What is truth?

We know betrayal
and we know lies;
but can't see the truth before our eyes.

We argue reality,
basing our truth on that;
but who knows where reality is at.

We extrapolate and theorize-
we idealise and we rationalise;
but the answer is just beyond our grasp.

What is truth?

To the question we must add specifics,
Personalize it,
and add three little words.

What is the truth, to you?
