There are absolutes between true and false
that you can’t see between lies and truths.
They are simpler whereas lies are twisted
and truths might be parts of another—faceted.
You can make true and false into many things,
and fabricate just as many that makes lying
just patchworks of facts and otherwise,
and truths as puzzles—visible and not—to the eyes.
It’s simpler to speak in ones and zeroes—absolutes—
than in pages and paragraphs, in alphabets
and tongues. Logic is just simpler than reason;
following formulas is easier than comprehension.
For one cannot equal zero, but words
change as throats dry and pages yellow.
