Issue Diggers.






       Issue Diggers.


As material transmission makes way to progress,
Scoop out a blast from the past, for a stage show;
Some adorable moments of the past
Will  aptly beautify the present.
But exhume not, the past for a blast;
It will let the flag of peace fly half mast.

Truth decomposed, is worse than falsehood.
Fresh faces of truth make contemporary relevance,
Like unclaimed bodies in mortuaries awaiting attention.
The truth of revolt is not an illegitimate child,
To be tutored and sponsored by men in masks,
Whose agenda remains a privileged falsehood.

Collective tension fills the bill of those,
Who yarn stories from what they dig out,
To become Issue diggers for fund and fraud.
And to stay on, in other men’s memory chips, 
No one can belittle history with a mad mimicry of the past,
Lest their own breed should dig their memories out, aghast.
