Ah, can you show me
the truth behind miasma
clouds of blue and red,
Can you show me, yes,
without sound bites and buzz words
voices raised too loud
Can you show me truth
naked without the isms,
clean in the sunshine
Can you show me now
the connections that link us
honest self-interest
Demonstrate for me
how x implies y
without emoting.
Show me true reason
fears, worries and needs made plain
unwrapped by tin foil
Searching for the real
on a smoke filled battleground
I need a hot bath.
