There are facts

Opinions only,
Alternative facts,
There are no facts,
Conspiracy theories,
In “news”, in our land
Lies, false flags, deception,
Orwell would be so proud…
 
Opinions are important,
Other viewpoints worthy,
But true facts matter,
Truth must prevail,
For us to survive, to live,
As a people, as one nation...
 
There are facts,
Objective measures,
No matter our opinions,
The lies that have been told,
What we see does not deceive us,
Stubborn truths we cannot deny,
Despite shimmering “news” footage…
