We try to simplify the truth
Into one-liners and bold statements

One for alls and all for ones
Metaphors and story lines

Much of what we believe,
Led by intuition,
Thought
And emotions.

Funny how far society decides what you believe.
What truths you’ll take to heart,
And what you won’t.

Funny how far time and tide,
Changes the narrative,
Changes evil into good,
Sympathy into hatred.

Sleep deprived and hungry,
Half formed decisions and recklessness
Riddled memories and fiddlesticks.
