POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Note:The words for the second line came to me in the early morning and them several lines for one and two.I only got up and wrote down the second line and finished the writing of this haiku poem in the morning.I used the picture of St. Dominic who is the patron saint of falsely accused people.Considering the great increase in censorship by MSM, social medias andcreated fact checkers orgs. who in reality only protect liars and falsely accuse the truth speakers.I think the picture of St. Dominic fits the theme of the poem.I was inspired, wrote this poem in the haiku style of poetry and published it for the first time today, the 20th of December,2020.
COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Unnikrishnan E S 22 December 2020

Loved the poem. Truth is often “voices in the wilderness “, which people try to ignore, especially when the truth is not pleasing. The Vedas (Indian Sriptures) say: Satyam bruyaat Priyam bruyaat Na bruyaat Satyam apriyam. Meaning, “Speak truth. Speak pleasing facts. Do not speak truth which does not please the listener.” The ultimate truth.
