It is time to make time
For the truth
Of what happened.
It is time to make space
For what some wished
Not be known.
It is time to take heed
Of the lengths went
To smother
The misdeeds and bad choices
So the fake
Will take hold.
It is time to revisit
Civic duty and justice
And refuse to permit
Free reign for hate,
Greed and lies.
It is time to return
To the truth.
For in fact it has long been
Well way past
The time.
An excellent poem. It is indeed time.

Timing can be a tricky thing — when it feels like ‘time’ for some, it may not feel like it is ‘time’ for others … however … yes, in this case I do believe it is well past time …
