Why the Hell Not Full Disclosure?
why must we be so
masked, why must we be
so “correct”
why must a stratum of
bullshit blot, asphyxiate
candor, validly, morality
why not tones in gray
instead of indistinguishable
sameness of sameness
orange, green or blue
why not division via
truth
than via barbarous, insidious
diversion
why must foregoing
oaths, bonds, inscribed pillars
transmute, transmogrify, become
misconstrued, insubstantial pontifications
why must our vexed, enclosed
editing machine dam up what
is vital, succor, restorative
what is distinctly clear
what is commonest of sense
that which truth makes
fleetingly tender
truth makes unambiguous
bestows light
expelling, eradicating
turbulent shadows
clearing minds, hearts
so only peace, remains
