Universality of Truth (Poem)

Updated: 4 days ago

A beautiful design of a city

(Inspired by reading Mr. Aizaz Baqir's book "Soulless Goddess").


The first one invented the keyboard,

The second uses it to write magnificent poems,

The third spreads messages of hatred online.

What, therefore, can you say about this device?

Three intellectuals sit in a coffee shop.

The first brings up the subject of the Roman Empire.

The second claims: "It was the greatest Empire on earth!"

The third is triggered, "It was the Nazi Germany of the ancient past;

Caused genocides, killed people for entertainment, and enslaved countless subjects".

What is, therefore, to objectively be said about that ancient country?

Finally,

Three geeks discuss about video games.

An obscure game that has been received negatively.

The second said "This game was so bad!"

And the third said...

"It was bad, but I enjoyed it a lot".

Who's to say "I am right, you are wrong",

When to reality,

We all belong?

Regardless of level?

Facts are superior? Opinions, inferior?

The truth does not work,

It contains anyone and anything,

Like the Earth, its humans,

And the universe -- all the asteroids, planets and galaxies.

Anything is small at the right distance,

And huge at the right closure.

A picture can exist -- fact,

But can also be photoshopped,

And still exist.

A man can be feminine,

And still be,

An existent man,

(As if there is a difference).

But Hitler was also one,

Did he do good for the world?

A smart man can sometimes make stupid mistakes,

And even a stupid man can come with bright insights.

The mentally healthy can too get into a meltdown,

And the mentally ill doesn't always need a psychologist.

Can you say otherwise?

The truth welcomes all correct things,

Into its guest house,

With no discrimination.

The only requirement --

Be Correct!

To those who wish to "hit" me,

Even just because of my content --

Hit Laozi

Hit Sun Tzu,

Hit the Bible,

Hit the Quran,

Hit Epictetus,

Hit Socrates,

Hit Osho





Digging further into contemplation,

Is research of the conscious mind,

And its vast potential.


Logical reasoning, once sound enough,

It's his own source,
