Today’s word is “consent” ... kuhn-sent ... to permit, approve, or agree. (Dictionary.com)
Mine
They said all truths are equal,
And said I should consent,
(They could not find their measure,
And cared not where it went.)
They did not care for measuring,
Since all ideas are fair,
Logic or the lack of it,
Caused no confusion or despair.
Facts were not important,
Even when they multiplied,
Those weighted words were not enough,
To put feelings to the side.
Only one truth really mattered,
The one of which they spoke,
All others were as irrelevant,
As leaves gone up in smoke.
