Dried Pea Wars

calipoeia

Truth is too big
to have a brand,
Truth is too big
to be packaged.
Truth is far bigger
than any versus — mine vs. yours,
ours vs. theirs

Every sense of truth
that wars against another’s
is like a small person
throwing dried peas
against a window —
the insignificant ptick ptick
will have no impact

There will be no time even
to call them to justice —
They will be swept away
like so much flotsam

And the clean rush
of the Truth that is One
will cover everything —
that will be enough.
