Poem about hiding truth within it.
Speak To Me in Poetry

Speak to me in poetry,
In words concise and short,
In succinct expressions
Going straight to the heart.

None of this mumbo-jumbo jargon,
That’s circumlocutory and evasive.
Rather, hide the truth
In simple statements,
Requiring self-reasoning,

And leading to thoughts
Helping me grasp,
A depth of understanding
Heretofore unknown.
