The Circus of the West

do you hate the truth. . .
because it hurts?
do you love the myth . .
becuase it lies?

perhaps,
but I doubt it.

do you hate being wrong. . .
because it's wrong?
or is it something more like. . .
because you're not right?

perhaps,
I expect that.

Would you kill for some comfort?
Would you die for some lies?

perhaps,
if we never knew better.

How close do you look. . .
When you get what you expect?
