Sounds of Truth: Transparency

There is no Disinfectant like Sunlight
Bright is Harsh, but Illuminating

Darkness Feels Cool and Private,

Even Liberating

Until you Realize the Rot Set in the Day the Light Receded
And has been Building up Heavily ever since.

Hot and Transparent Beats Cold and Opaque
Every. Single. Time.

In Running Companies.
In Personal Relationships.
In Government.
And In any Endeavor involving Human Minds.

Insulation from the Glare of Truth
Breeds the Worst in Us Humans.
Only the Plain Truth
Spin-Less, Simple, Unmistakable, and Clear
Can Set You Free
To Reach for the Skies.

PS: Sounds of Truth is a series of stories and poems reflecting my random observations on life. They are loosely inspired by a constellation of real world experiences and fictional stories, and do not refer to specific people or situations.
