The Lie is, the Truth is (© 2008 Eileen Baker)

The Lie.

It is you. It is them.
They are wrong.
If they did what I expected of them, all would be well.
They have the wrong ideas, so that is why we cannot live with them.
And anyway, they don't like us.
They create war, we don't.
They are the war mongers, we are not.


The Truth.

Is is I. It is not you, it is not them.
I am at fault. You are not at fault.
I am not seeing you clearly. You are seeing me clearly.
Let me look through your eyes.
Let me understand.
This is the bottom line, there is no more.
