Truth and All Its Variations

SAMPLE TRUTHS:

We are not what has happened to us. We are what we choose to become.

Silence is consent.

Secrecy is hostile to intimacy.

Love is a neurotic dependency relationship characterized by jealous possessiveness.

Delusionary amnesia is provoked to deny an unpleasant reality.

Humankind is nothing more than it makes of itself.

The act of lying implies the universal value which it denies. By disguise anguish reveals itself.

In order to define the probable, one must possess the truth.

When Our Worlds Collide

There is a still silence
as in a dream
I look ahead
turn and
look behind
nothing moves
I step forward, something is different
everything looks the same
I step back
nothing moves
it feels different

A sleepy fog horn
unexpected car horn
child's laughter
Sounds are here
somewhere

Trees are rooted
birds flap and fly
morning sun darts among the clouds
Yet my eyes are different

I look ahead
I look behind
I step forward again

And there is the wind
a glorious breeze
I know there is wind
