Moonlight Mutiny

Send the call by way of land,

by wire, mouth, and sea

and let resound the trumpets, all

to bring us forth — the free;

we emerge, like light in shadows

dancing underneath the trees,

my friends and I, a cloud of dust

to spurn and steer the eyes

of history.

TRUTH

When words become estranged,
their meanings start to change…
Replaced and reinstated,
their letters rearrange…

Truth turns into Terror,
Different – Dangerous;

Fact is no more Fair,
Distinct becomes Disgust;

Solace turns to Silence,
Free reborn as Fear;

When Truth is taken,
Wisdom hides…
For Ignorance is near.
