I realize I have real eyes That see real lies— ~Nearsighted (rule of law) ~Farsighted (rule of lies) ~The "ayes" have it (hidden agenda) ~The "ayes" have it (secret addenda) ~The "ayes" have it (hate crimes) ~The "ayes" have it (critical times) ~Undocumented truth (entombed) ~Unmitigated lies (exhumed) I realize I have real eyes That see real lies— ~As the world cries

Real Eyes See
My eyes can trace the next steps carefully caress the footprints As they're within several feet and at the distance My vision can't be beat. But the steps seem to travel further Wuthering winds blow dust over them and my vision becomes blurry I'll lose sight of them soon If I don't hurry. Myopia is so commonplace Commenting on its existence seems silly to me But I'm a slave to my glasses Without them, I can't really see.
