The Mask Of Reason

The mask of reason

Wears only one face.

It cannot be false,

Honesty is its base.

 

Oh there are some

Who can alter what's true .

But in the end who do they fool?

Not the wise I'm sure.

 

Stay alert to misconceptions,

They abound and can be false,

The wise will see right through them,

As they have in the past.

what is true for one person
may in fact not be true for another
there is no way we all have the same truths
we all have varied conceptions of everything
