Quest for hidden truth

By Atok Dan

A quest for hidden truth

Dead or alive,

It is conspicuous

Alive in the minds and hearts of disciples

In the blood stream of its martyrs

Its saints and holy souls adore it

—————–

Power could severely trashed it dead,

But isn’t enough,

Its tongue and flame still glow brighter,

Under the helm of a power abused

Even under the carpet of evil system

Choruses of its impact set them bare-chested,

Naked and desperate for its discovery

Relays fears to power

———————

Its followers suffer of jinx and abuses

Gays and lesbians,

Straights and bisexuals,

None is a friend

All suffer under a quest for hidden truth

——————–

It is a twin to Jupiter and justices,

It’s only resides on paper

We only found truth written on paper

Nor democrats,

Or even socialists never love seeing it done

Let’s never talks of capitalist,

It’s all about greed that murder truth

Dead or alive,

All in all,

Truth still survives traumas posed by power
