Obliquity

Your words have power but it’s indirect.
You won’t convince antagonists with facts.
Such effort is a waste. Instead, connect
the other with suggestion that attacks
unquestioned stale assumptions. Sense distracts,
but subtle and subliminal might win
adjustment near miraculous. Impacts
are possible with artful origin.
