Truth II

It has no face

It has no color

But has a voice

that is decisive, affirmative, and strong.

It speaks louder within;

Its rallying cry directed to conscience,

Daunting, haunting,

And taunting.

All must concede,

Or yield at least

For in denial, character is at bid

and morals are in jeopardy.

It rallies for justice.

It crusades for fairness and equity—

What a folly to deny?

Oh no, too many fellows—can’t count.

But if one stands up for it—

Amid all challenges,

Against all odds–

Righteouness brings an army to fight for one’s cause.

Hypocrisy is an illness

of the proud

and arrogant.

Lying is just a symptom.
