A truth dismissed,
Does not solicit for listeners.
Or advocates an enforcement of it.

Too powerful is truth,
To attempt one with seduction.
It is there as is to be received.

Once truth is revealed and felt to be real,
It's more comfortable than a pair of shoes...
One refuses to exchange or remove.

A truth dismissed,
Does not solicit for listeners.
Or advocates an enforcement of it.

Too powerful is truth,
To attempt one with seduction.
It is there as is to be received and believed.

More comfortable than a pair of shoes,
One refuses to exchange or remove...
Is truth.
