The Truth is a strange
        and mysterious thing:
   Mainly because
        no one--
              (save God)--
has ever seen it.
For instance--
     how do we know
       when one speaks
            the Truth or a lie?
After all,
   that which is one man's
       most noble Truth
May be another's
            most abhorrent lie.

Does this thing called "Truth"
                      even exist?
If we humans are
      as bad as
              the preachers say,
Then maybe all we know
         are lies--
   as Truth
      --in its purest form--
     could very well be
           too good
               for beings such as us.
So when you think
       you speak the Truth...
Stop!
      And reflect...
           You could very well be relating
                  The most horrendous,
                           Disgusting
                           Untruth.
