Doublespeak

Still in hiding…

I get tired of this, the doublespeak games

I freeze when asked to say one thing, mean another, think another

Half truths – the twilight zone


 

Now, said the drumbeat in my head

Now, said the little bird warbling the morning in

Now, whispered the sun still behind the horizon

Coming up – powering up

Seasoning for the summer

From the outer edges of the dark


 

Truth,

Its always been one scary place

Not for herself I can tell you

But for all of us who – when told the truth

May well wish it were otherwise

Non-acceptance spins its own alternate reality


 

And then there are those

Who will keen and wail

At the utter heart break

(After one such episode and when you come to another one of the same species

And you its cause

You think again, your heart weighed down, unwilling to see more hurt

Full disclosure can wait you think while you do

Some scrub up and make pretty turn around?

Have you just changed your skin? While still pumps there that evil heart?)
