(T)ruth

Truth is a hole
through dirt
through rock
and stone

Truth is air
unseen
filling each open space
presence perceived

Truth is truth
hard
rigid
declared
facts

But Truth is not truth alone
bits of reality born bawling and bare
Truth is more
more than up and down
left and right
hot and cold
true and false

Truth is the answer
life is the question
meaning?
purpose?

Truth is the hand that reaches for yours as you fall
the foot that walks before you
the eye that sees what all other eyes see
and more

Truth is, in fact
a knocking fist
sounding softly on doors
asking almost aloud
calling with cautious quiet
Truth begs
Truth pleads

But Truth has never
nor will ever
need

anything

Because no matter what Truth may be

Truth is

exactly who He says He is.
