The truth is out there

The truth is out there

A Poem by andrew mitchell

The truth is out there

The light withdraws,
darkness descends,
the eclipse shadows
the truth.

i am not an x-files guy so miss the connection ..but i love brief poems that cause thought .. so in reading i thought of the terror primitive humans felt whet eclipses occurred .. until they found out it was something that was in passing ... and so for the internal man eh!? darkness and fear causing anxiety and feelings of hopelessness send one into a death spiral ..until we realize it is ..only in passing ... and then life begins ... in truth and comfort and assurance ... great little poem .. totally agree with your title

I am an X file fanatic. What a great time in television...X-files, Millennium, The Highlander...sigh
I don't agree however. I think truths are mutable and vague. It's like sitting on a hearth and saying/THAT's fire...no THAT's fire, no THAT's fire...
In the end, the answers are not nearly as profound as the questions. The question can remain, unchanged.
This is a wonderful little poem.

this hits me in two ways...yes, the truth is hidden with lies and rhetoric..

but i am also loving that X-Files is back...and have been watching it...
great show.

nice poem, too...brevity but much said.
