What is Truth?

What is Truth?

A Poem by carl
"

only scratching the surface

"

Truth is

pure

eternal

unchanging

autonomous.


Truth can be 

unknown

ignored

misstated  

disavowed.


Truth cannot be 

defiled

evaded

deceived

overthrown.

And also, according to the Trumpets own site to rival Twiiter, TRUTH social... although I don't think he gets irony either, it must be fake news then!
