Good copy editor
edited my new book
of stories and poems
maybe called Us
maybe Middlefield
and she thought
the stories and poems
were all true.
Everything is true
I wrote her. Every single
word. But true
doesn’t always mean
what actually happened.
True means you
believe what
you’re saying
(is true.)
True true true.
and Congratulations on the book
To go one step further, true might mean that the reader can have confidence that that which is expressed possesses a kernel of verifiable truth.
