? Truth? Poem by Andy Caldwell

? Truth?



We see the truth
as a multi stable image
with each having a unique view
thus we confound the truth
it has to be exactly the same
for me and for all of you
Truth by definition is absolute
the truth is unique
mostly the truth is true
regardless of our perspective
or our definitions
it is simply 'the truth.'
We confuse what we want it to be
with what it is actually
Once the known world was flat
we know now that it is round
in antiquity the earth was center
for all of space
then for a time it was the sun
now the center is lost in space
in all this time 
the truth remained the same
it was our knowledge that changed
