To Know Truth

A reflection on knowledge of Truth

————

How may we know Truth?

Will Truth reveal itself to us

Like a flower

Petals opening to the Sun

For all to see?

Or will Truth mask its arrival

So that only those who seek it

Rejecting lies and myth and folly

May find it in reward of their quest?

Having found Truth

Who amongst us can comprehend it?

What frame of reference 

May shape such observation

And allow recognition of Truth

By those who see it?

Does Truth exist if we do not see it?

If we cannot comprehend it?

Or is it perhaps that 

What we do dimly see

What we imperfectly comprehend

Through the prism of our experience and intellect

That thing we call, “reality”

Is perhaps “Truth”

As feebly as we may know it?
