Conundrum?

truth
a point
claimed by life’s
conclusions made
experiences
played out in real time’s frame
deluded or concluded
by eyes tainted, strained, or inflamed
with passion, delusion or pain’s stain
too heart embedded or brain emblazoned
to discount as opinion without probing,
investigating, aligning with Word and Light.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

I like the way this poem stretches out as it progresses...the form goes very well with the theme..the content is brief, but in that brevity lies the answer to the title, which is actualy a question....very good, enjoyed the read

btw
I did spell the word wrong in my poem about the road killed frogs,, it should have been "they've" I have edited it to be so, thanks for pointing that out in your comment
