From this side of truth <br />Lies fall twisted at the gate <br />Sweet cradle songs <br />Wayward mothers sang to soothe <br />Blistered upon their tongues. <br /> <br />Four square and high <br />All sides come tumbling down <br />Lost to the roll of loaded dice <br />Truth is a broken ship <br />Floundering upon a distant shore.<br /><br />Colin Ian Jeffery<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/from-this-side-of-truth/
