Truth telling is an art.
Picasso told it,
as did Monet…
And Duse felt it
While Brando played
And Eva Le Gallienne, who was
a teller of her own love, and truth
Who now rests, forgotten in the booth.
Those truth tellers only
acted out their parts
and painted on their canvases
and died of broken hearts.
But the truth lives on
Despite their loss
For others to share,
Whether you tell it
or not.
