Just Say No to Truth if It Hurts

Just Say No to Truth if It Hurts
 
I like arguing.
 
Troll & bully bully
dangling over a pit of hello:
Facebook threading  best I can. 
 
Fencing with face masks and
protection: parry foibles &  touche.
 
Nothing’s going to change my mind.
 
It’d take blunt force trauma to
reconfigure attitude & outlook,
recalibrate my mind set in its ways
& mean: bolt from the blue or
hooked & hauled into the  canoe
to flip & flop in absolut  dryness,
 
(Title of Warren Wilson’s
Brandon Lacy Campos’s recent
book of poetry: It Ain’t Truth
if It Doesn’t Hurt)
