Back to the trickster

A Poem by Jon Roggie

Sorry,
  I dwell on this aspect.

I think it is because of modern culture.
  Most are looking for a lie.

So truth is told in a round about way.
   
The obvious,
   shadowed by deception,
      only to show the truth.

After you realize,
  even when done with good intent,
    how do you trust the trickster?
