Sometimes the truth must hide <br />Or even be sacrificed to other things <br />So Laura B on Charlie R last night <br />Filled me with a deja vu previously <br />Almost exclusively reserved for Dick Nixon <br />A sense that something was not right <br />But beyond my power to name. <br />This lovely lady of the nation <br />A woman any man would welcome as true love <br />Out of touch with memory of open microphones <br />Or what I swear was President Putin's cynicism <br />For all the world to see. <br />The sad conclusion it is not in war alone <br />Where truth is the first casualty.<br /><br />Bill Grace<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/reflection-on-truth/
