Sowing Seeds of Deception – v5

Into the soil of our doubts, or fears,
sowing seeds of deception
in patterns of behavior,
in the shifting sands of numbers,
ever moving beneath our feet

Changing the truths, the facts,
something which should be immutable;
new information coming
beyond the last hour
new seeds in the dust

Interpretations written, conveyed,
seeking different understanding;
nothing known generally
the still public unawares
that which is written on shifting sands

Raising concerns within us,
a history of doubt growing, fears,
whether there is thought in these
or if innocence prevails;
some frustrations almost palpable
