№ 571: Here And Now, There And Then, Tomorrow And Tomorrow And Tomorrow

EVERYWHERE, April 10

Fact is, I maintain —
as I've said all along —
there are no right answers,
just flavors of wrong.
Some things are “right”
for a short time
and later on 
they're called a crime
or, at the least,
somewhat untoward
as people change
and they move forward.
Or backward. 
Depending upon
your point of view,
culture, DNA and so on.

“TRUTH” decreed
could set us “free”
if we agreed
what “TRUTH”
and “free” should be.
Which we never will.
Despite hopes and wishes,
those who survive
are the most vicious.
Most of the rest of us
sleep with the fishes.
