Post-truth in wonderland

If truth is lies

Is truth then lying?

Where lies the truth?

Lies there the lie?

 

If truth is lies

Is lies new truth?

If truth is lies

Is half-truths half-lies?

 

If facts don’t matter

As a matter of fact

Not anymore an expression

What then is the real matter?

 

If everything real is fake

Fake is already fake

Then everything is fake

Making up of a fake reality

 

If truth is in decay

Are lies filling the cavity

Of our hallowed heads with

Confusion sans concussion

 

Think of the above

Seemingly confounding you

But never ever say

Ignorance is bliss

Only by accident

Never ever by choice!
