Honesty

QUOTE

Political language.....it is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.

George Orwell

Honesty

Words are only vehicles

They drive thought and intent

It's up to us to understand

Just what these words have meant

Are they carrying forth the honesty

You'd hope all words would bear?

Or intentionally without foundation

As empty as the air?

Are they burdened with deceit?

Heavily laden with someone's lies?

Have they compromised the truth?

As filthy as the flies?

See the point from which they came

The character of he who speaks

Before the words are embraced for truth

In the answers that we seek.
