To see, or not to see, that is the problem; <br /> <br /> Whether 'tis easier in this life to suffer <br /> <br /> The barbs and jabs of unthinking citizens, <br /> <br /> Or to marshal your forces against your foes, <br /> <br /> And by resisting stop them? To struggle to weep; <br /> <br /> No more; and by struggle to say to assuage <br /> <br /> The heartache and the thousand inward struggles <br /> <br /> That man is heir to, 'tis culmination <br /> <br /> Fervently to be desired. To struggle to weep; <br /> <br /> To weep; maybe to think: ay, there's the rub; <br /> <br /> For in the weeping that drowns the sorrow <br /> <br /> When you succumb to life here on earth, <br /> <br /> Must present our cause; There's truth's impact <br /> <br /> That makes chaos of so long a life; <br /> <br /> For who is left to bear the taunts and jibes of time, <br /> <br /> The abuser of power, the educators pleas, <br /> <br /> The pangs of trampled truth, the endless trails, <br /> <br /> The decisions in smoke filled rooms and the cries <br /> <br /> Of those unworthy to think. <br /> <br /> Truth will out! Truth will out! <br /> <br /> But what is to be, will be. <br /> <br /> Just what is transpiring at the Congressional level in our government! I thought that this poem might be worth considering.<br /><br />Dr. Elbert R. Moses, Jr.<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/quot-truth-quot-with-an-apology-to-shakespeare/
