Who knows 

how many 

layers

over

generations 

have been 

used. 

 

Sprayed on, 

and caked on, 

and smeared on

thick

for the purpose 

of covering

the truth. 

 

Oh ye who

through the ages 

have done this,

though 

your layers

be deep,

know this -

 

that the truth 

will break though. 

Not a thing

you can do. 

For all

of the truth

is his.
