Seeing

Madness,
madness madness madness
madness.
Truth?
Leave the letter that never begins to go find the latter that ever comes to end, written in smoke and blurred by mist and signed of solitude, sealed of night.
-James Joyce

You guys are reading too much into a poem.
Madness is a given, truth is Tuesday's laundry.
