THE NATURE OF TRUTH UPON THIS EARTH is a Poem about my serious view of how this Wonderful Planet takes our approaches to the Truth about her Nature...there must be a better Planet somewhere, I suppose...but I want to stay here, personally...I like being on this Planet very, very much....

THE NATURE OF TRUTH UPON THIS EARTH

when our lies are over
this Earth will not
hold us any more

it will have given up
the race we run
upon it with our
changes in realities
our fantasies
never giving up
our chances to
move away

The Truth

from our attention
with all speed

we cannot be with
The Nature of this
Earth and tell our
lies over and over

Nature doesn't speak
such nonsense
not ever

hard and unforgiving
soft and forgiving
Nature is biding her time
with our poor selves

waiting until times when

The Truth

that we expect to come
and save us
saves us not

passes us by completely
leaves us stranded
on most dead rock

moves on
to a kinder planet
that never combined
all those minerals and soups
of carbon and life energy
into human form

a good planet
where all of our lies
are never spoken
because we are not there

never were there

never will be there

Nature yawns
smiles
breathes in

The Truth

breathes out

The Truth
