Truly Twisted

Twisted things get a bad rap mostly.

If you twist the truth, you lie, and that is not generally a good thing.

Except we often don’t want to call a lie out for what it is sometimes.

So a liar ‘gilds the lily’, is ‘economic with the truth’ or just ‘a little disingenuous.’

A twist on a twist, as it were.

Snakes are twisty, sorta unloved and often deadly.

Actual twisters are beautiful , but wreak havoc and destruction in their paths.

‘Twists of fate’ are random and unpredictable.

Truth is ,we are all twisted in some way.

Biologically. Socially. Environmentally. Psychologically. Intellectually.

That just comes with being human.

However, being twisted does not prevent a spiral staircase; a double helix; a rope; or a vine, being purposeful, strong and creative.

I’ll leave it to you to add your own twist to things…
