Such Is This World
It's not what you say, but how it is said
That determines what stays in the head.
Appearance of conviction as you speak
Shows you and your ideas aren't weak.
Understanding 1% less than you do,
Makes you expert for some points-of-view.
Facts are merely what they appear to be
Since reality only a few can or want to see.
Truth is defined by those who prevail
So all other information is irrelevant detail.
Such is this world not for better but worse.
Demand change to put decline in reverse.
