Read the Black

I try to only read the black,
But what fun is that?
Could things really be all that they seem?
Because that seems a disservice to facts.

For, though it causes many problems,
Through every facet of your life,
You enrich, at least, your dialogues,
With a multi-faceting knife,

That tells you all you hear and all you don't,
And creates a labyrinth of reality.
And, besides, there would never have been language at all,
If people always said what they mean.

And it's alright,
The trick is not to take it personally,
And not to care at all what people think,
But only what they say literally.
