Known



How is it possible,
To hear someone declare...
Something known to have not,
Yet experienced.
And many others are often heard to say,
How they know people.
Never to have had a conversation with.
Talking at or about somebody,
Has nothing to do with who they are.

And in these days,
We witness to live, hear and observe...
Much goes unknown,
To have many say known to know.
And this to convince others they do.
Leaving themselves and others too,
Knowing more about what they lie about...
That is nowhere close to truth and reality.
Since deception sold to sell it,
Has more profit to pocket...
Than truth will ever be known to produce!
