Stand Up for Verity
A fabulist can take the truth and spin it, change it, plan it,
but then it is no longer truth, for truth is carved in granite.
The real truth is indelible. Permanent. Etched in stone.
Don’t mess with it and call it truth. You must leave truth alone.
It can’t accommodate a stretch. It’s fierce in resolution.
It’s not right to bend it simply to find a solution.
Truth is truth and fabrication is another matter,
so do not conjure up a tale and claim it’s not the latter.
Though presidents and kings and poets scratching in their dormer
might for their single purposes stray away from the former,
there must be someone willing to call out their acts as ruthless,
for there’s no folly greater than to be led by the truthless.
The prompt words today are fabulist, fierce, accommodate and granite. Here are links:

Imagine, for a moment, if we actually had ballots and instead of voting for or against a candidate, we had a long list of True/False boxes … and when we added up the trues and falses, we could vote for whoever has the most “true” checkmarks.

Unfortunately, I fear few would have the sticktoitiveness to do so. This is the sound bite generation.
