Uncertainty laughs
Giving credence to liars
Seeding faith with doubt
Aberrations accepted
In lieu of constructive thought

    I had a conversation with a woman I’ve been friendly with for years who has gone all Trump. She explained that all news was fake. I said my husband was a reporter for more than 40 years and he was as honest a guy as you could ever meet.

    LONG pause.

    “Does it matter?” she asked.

    If the truth doesn’t matter, what DOES matter?

    Excellent thoughts and word choice, Sue. In this culture we are in most of us don’t know if we’re coming or going… truth must prevail. ❤

    A very, very timely tanka! I watch the goings on with mouth open, or OMG mostly. Heads in the sand, ..and living deep in Animal Farm is my take on it all.
