Realizing I’ve been duped, believed in a lie that continues to hurt, one may escape truth momentarily and choose not to believe suppositions on their face, like so many answers on a multiple-choice test, or dancing women that woo me.

Condensed Version

Believing in a lie

Hurts the most when realized

Like incorrect answers on a multiple choice test

Or dancing women that woo.

Moral for the student (if you choose to accept it): Don’t believe everything you see, but don’t go overboard and believe nothing [nihilism].
