Tuning

truth is in tune, or at least in touch, with one's lie,
battling the embargoes of the tests of time-
a true artist is in tune with nature; .
someone pure can fathom the logic of evil;
Midas disciples need to touch the poor;
the well need to suffer as much as the ailing;
a true Samaritan must be selfish at times;
true laughter has its roots in depression;
realists base their works on surreal perception;
a true poet cannot resist prose;
the hunter learns from the prey;
a true end never abandons its beginning-
truth is in tune, or at least in touch, with one's lie.
