Truth stood atop the mountain bathed in transparency
Until a lie, whispered in the wind, became a gale.
A falsehood creating a cataract of uncertainty
Clouding and challenging truth’s ability to prevail.
Perched precariously near the edge staring into the abyss,
Truth screamed against the wind silenced by its own roar.
The lie, now confident of victory, began to shout and hiss
Abandoning its whisper, letting it’s falsehoods soar.
Truth suddenly stopped screaming; it whispered in the wind
Penetrating the chaos with a message heard by all.
The lie continued its bluster until the very end
But Truth learned its lesson, and whispered above the thrall.
