Dialectics  

The mind must have some wiggle room
akin to yang and yin
to see some rectitude exhume
from spin room lingo sin.

Hegel stated it his own way
and Engels did that too
to ascertain just what we say
as truth or ballyhoo.

Then the Whigs would come along
and stretch semantic slots
to see how much more might belong
in gaps where we put thoughts.

So before you give up on the truth
as too derivative;
rival logic is a neutral sleuth...
much more indicative.
