Alternate Realities

Just stick to the facts, Ma’am.
The facts are such as this:
The Nazi’s murdered six million Jews
and Germany was held accountable.
America fire bombed Dresden,
nuked Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
and came off blameless.
The facts are only whatever
we decide to accept.
Truth is an investigation
that never really ends.
Alternative realities abound.
Never get too comfortable.
Everything you know is wrong.
