Truth Embraced Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

It becomes easy for many,
To think of it as a bad taste.
Interpreted later as a hatred faced.
If one is fed truth unsweetened.
And shown by others not to appreciate.

For them,
They feel the doing offends.
And for them,
They begin...
What never ends.
They...
Take actions to then seek retaliation!
Or some kind of revenge.

If one is fed truth unsweetened.
And shown by others not to appreciate.
The thought of truth embraced enrages one like this.
Truth for them,
IS out of place.
And for them resisted.

For them,
They feel the doing offends.
And for them,
They begin...
What never ends.
They...
Take actions to then seek retaliation!
Or some kind of revenge.

So hard to sit when truth visits.
Whether or not the doing mends.
Some feel the doing has victimized them.
With a wish to deceive themselves to no end.

It becomes easy for many,
To think of it as a bad taste.
Interpreted later as a hatred faced.
If one is fed truth unsweetened.
And shown by others not to appreciate
