how much
of what we believe
to be true
is true?
did you ever stop to think
or check or question
the
assumptions
memories
opinions
verdicts
that form
your very foundation
or the quiet stories
that play
in the background
and fuel
your decisions
who said what
and what it meant
or didn’t mean
who did what
or didn’t
and why
go back over
old, worn ground
with a new
pair of glasses
and wonder
at the veracity
of what you saw then
and what you now see
and how you
may never know
not really
some of the stories
I could tell you
seem absolutely true
to me
but I wonder
if they would
to you
