TRUTH Vigilante: Ew, Icky. How Gross?

data collection, framing truth

What if truth was a coin and you only had to pick one side?
Do you know your heads from your tales?

let’s play around
with the truth

you don’t know me

         you know
                   things
                             about me

                                       selectively

                                                 only what you want to learn

                                                           BUT, ignore

                                                                     what doesn’t fit
                                                                               in your frame

now I’m over here
who moved me
into the corner?

how do I get
here?
I’ll let you inspect
what is circumspect

you might not like
the answers
I call truth

perspective
not part of your narrative
sits on my side of the table

is that gum under here?

5.27.23

big, Big, BIG conspiracy theorist
for chasing after truth
head-bagged, hauled out
of its home
in the middle of the night

the children always wondered
if dad had run out on them,
a betrayer, or
was mom the enemy?

and other psycho babble

let’s discredit ourself
by being self-deprecating
because we know what lies therein
from the absence of truth

puzzles are more easily
deconstructed
