Shibboleth ... inevitable

Today’s word is “shibboleth” ... a common saying or belief with little current meaning or truth. (Dictionary.com)

Inevitable
We can’t rely on shibboleths,
To help us find our way,
We need the truth proclaimed out loud,
Each and every day.

Over and over shout to the air,
Write and publish wide,
Tell each other for memories’ sake,
Don’t keep it all inside.

She will out; she always does,
But we can help her speed,
As with her hand raised to the sky
She spreads her righteous seed.
