Our story
is buried beneath
a pile of books.
Books filled with a kind of knowledge
so depending on the moral state
of the author, the editor and of the time within which it was
written.
But a story.
A story
is timeless.
It can be told and retold
over, around, through
and foreverly over again.
For the moral of the story,
like history
itself repeats in principle;
transcending beyond
individual moments and belief
into the commons.
There are no best-sellers in the story world,
just one's we'll remember; one's that get us dirty in a good
way,
like grass stains on a pair of khaki pants.
And so when things get too serious
and the days begin to pass
without their brilliance,
remember the story underneath,
take off your gloves
and with your bare hands
start digging.
