adjust





i have not resolved until this date

whether i should unreservedly speak truth

or when necessary conceal unkind truth

when real is uncomfortable speak deceit



truth is very real and is often cruel

even now it is the cruelty of fact

that makes me speak in a parable

to carefully conceal what is in heart



truth makes in me a little scratch

and it hurts within me much

that truth i refuse to speak out

making me to hum this new adjust
