The Myth of Truth
Read this writing off the wall: Who knows the world after all?
Mirror-mirror, don’t be false; Who is fairest, without faults?
We only presume to understand What has been given second hand.
Doubt as an antidote against death. In the flesh, thought defers to breath.
Pay attention please — Truth is, there is none!

[ Inadequate designations — drop labels! Pandora’s urn gets free refills at our table. Ward away idle deities with eager ease. Names without count amount to ONE ]
- Numerological formula: 18 verse lines + title (19 ∴ 1+9 = 10). We drop the zero since it weighs nothing and we get the primary one, which represents the first and final eternal Truth. Especially considering that ten itself also signifies completion.
