Question

Wallace Dean LaBenne

Discover the actual.
Distinguish the true.
Determine the factual.
Question the clue.
Detect the reality.
Demarcate the lines.
Define the veracity.
Question the signs.
Disclose the mysterious.
Defer the crackpot.
Depart the delirious.
Question the lot.
Decide the significance.
Delimit the list.
Descry the interference.
Question the gist.
Discern the ethereal.
Defy the profane.
Deride the material.
Question the vain.
