Verisimilitude. 

The appearance of truth.

Yet nothing is as it seems.

We’re one way here, 

and another there.

Animals have camouflage.

People have masks.
Verisimilitude 

Synonym for reality.

Another word

dependent upon the

perceptions of others.

I might mean this,

but you see/feel/experience

that, not to be confused with

those or them or these.

Verisimilitude.

If we could take the 

world at face value.

Resist imposing our

uninformed interpretations.

Realize people are genuine.

We’d all remove our masks.
