Truth Is Best

"Counterfeit" people will cheat, lie or steal.
They may seem innocent, but they're not "real".
Though they don't really intend to be cruel,
Deep in their "guidelines" for truth, "grey" will rule.

They aren't "clear-cut" on what's black or white.
Their insight is "hazy"... it isn't quite right.
They sometimes think "a little won't matter"
When in reality, truth it will scatter.

Truth is unbending... it cannot be changed.
It cannot be compromised or rearranged.
Those who see clearly will know what is true
And hold to the truth in all that they do.

"A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape."
Proverbs 19:5 KJV
