During time near lost, known as "Ye Olde"
Was said: "All that glitters is not gold
For they that uttered, words so bold
Languish in exile, receive shoulder cold
If every individual possesses
A unique set of fingerprints
How incredulous then
That Creation/Creator
Imagined humanity
In its entirety
Would be reduced/enslaved
By severe domestication/homogenization
Why would one insist
That only that which
Has been sourced from
Steeped narratives
Can then yield credibility
When wisdom
From yester-year
Reminds:
The emperor
That laid claim
To being clad newly
Was, butt-naked!
All is not
As it appears
Awaken from
The doldrums of hypnosis
Surrender not
Your critical eye
Lest resigned
To be plunged
Ever more into silence
"No prophet is accepted in his hometown"
A heroes welcome eludes those that seek & speak
the truth (though by it's very nature, it must come to light)...
