truth is one thing, part two

If truth is one thing
then disagreement is the falsity
you can feel the heat as it is released

as truths go forward
they must converge

nothing is forcing me to move forward, however.
i like plenty of room for my simple lies to be undisturbed
that's how they like to multiply

if you put two scientists down on the head of a pin
and waved a wand to turn one
into a creationist
they would both be likely to go flying with the repulsion
once lost
other things would be found
before a pinhead
how hard it would be to find that thing again
after this scuffle
if not for all the other pin points prodding you along

to move forward is to find truth
forward?
follow the incline if in the dark
if not, first find the dark

when you feel yourself falling
it was actually the other way

if you don't like to climb
feel free to float
though it will take a long time to get there that way

truth won't hold you anywhere
not for a minute
unless you don't mind sitting out a forest fire

truth is a nice thing
to line a nest with
it helps the eggs to hatch
my god you have to feed those little things
so they leave off their horrible chirping

all things are
all things are one
all things are not
all things are not truth

truth must be translated
to be truth
that is how you can become it

but what is its language?
if you speak it
tell me

is it silence?

is it a sound
that slows to stillness? is it spontaneous like cells
that leap into a fetal pulse? is it terryfying
as the peace of a dying breath?
