Crabbed minds hold on to ideas with such steely pincers
Especially, a truth that has been modified and mollified
Holding the truth in a miserable state of consciousness
Except for the truth that should have been, is executed
So many stakeholders come for a common purpose
Of infecting the minds with the pandemic ideologies
Happy playing with the altered and contagious truth
Such is the travesty of knowledge witnessed in all eras

Most would prefer to tickle the truth rather than enter it. That way it leaves room to ignore it while giving it a little bit of attention, and hidden insincerity is left intact.

That’s true, but the messengers have to strive harder. But it’s all gradual.

It is a work of shifting. Those that can’t be real eventually get sucked under by the undertow. But those who want it real eventually move into places of influence. Such is life. Only the truly living survive and thrive.

Yes, absolutely true. I like your clarity. It’s only matter of time synchronized with the universe’s will to initiate that shift.

Totally. Imperceptible, yet continually in progress. Seamless, yet fully effective.

Wonderfully said. Imperceptible to the unawakened senses, while there’s no denying the effectiveness and truth of its presence.

That would be the crux of the matter. Can’t add anything to it.
