Poem - On Truth

On Truth

Speak to me of truth.
Tell me the truth
Truly dear.

Oh that's a hard one
my darling
for what truths do you desire?

Is there a god?
Is there life after death?
Was JFK's assassination a conspiracy?

Or perhaps you desire the truth about yourself.
Are you special?
Are you talented?
Are you unique?
Are you loved?

The truth is:
The truth abides with you
and you alone
and with me
and me alone
and most certainly with Keats
and Keats alone.
" Beauty is truth, truth beauty,- that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."
