Problems of Truth



The truth is, if one reads the news
And looks for many countries’ views,
One will very quickly see
They very often don’t agree.
Who bombed a town?  The answer might
Be very varied in the sight
Of different countries, who will say
Opposing sides in this affray.
For there’s no doubt that for a start
Propaganda plays a part
In how events should be portrayed,
And door-step where the blame is laid.
And often non-one really knows
From where the truth or falsehood flows
And only later is it clear,
When fuller details then appear.
