CaveatA Poem by The Avid BibliophileWhat matters most in the court of law? Has the value of truth been lost?It doesn’t matter, right or wrong It only matters who stands strong The one who tells the better tale True or not, they will prevail Slippery serpents, hungry sharks Lions roar and huge dogs bark Distracting people from what’s true Stick to your story and you’ll win too In this court, it’s just a game Weaving webs and placing blame As the sky blazes and thunders Everyone can’t help but wonder If everything had to be true What would become of me and you? If ever we decide to start Our world will burst and fall apart © 2010 The Avid Bibliophile |
