This philosophical idea is nothing new,
But its meaning has changed,
Leaving many blue.
In most cases,
Around one out of two,
The hypocrite is not only the Accused,
But the accusing party too.
If you notice ones faults,
Keep it to you.
If both people are wrong,
Then the blame falls on who.
It falls on the one,
The one who stays true.

Is the true hypocrite the one who talks first? Or is it the one accused?
