Badagry Is A Memory Of A Lost People — Ayomide Inufin D'great by Inuayo007: 4:55am On Nov 18, 2022 |
how much more can history get pathetic? Culture dies everytime a body thuds & it's being thrown into the Atlantic, this is how much the waterways ate our brothers, declining descents; the last of our dying forefathers, history enveloped our chronicles & fed us with blackmail, in painful tears they chorused, in shackles & chains; the ship sailed; with stolen art & freedom, the waters waved goodbye to a people & identities that may never return, they found a new home & lost legitimacy, became unknown as they fought to own a face like pageantry, the rise to relevance; the fall of a dynasty, home became a place of estrangement, as tradition brittles into dark abolishment, the black race is a timeline of confusion, a school of thought with too many strayed institutions, like broken puzzles scattered everywhere; tales of damaged stories; wanting its justification to be aired, so they sound like favoured fugitives; who sought an asylum to flee from their stranded relatives, how sweet or sour, grace found a worthless like me, at least, i'm not in my alienated home where an opportunity is oligarchy & chances are slim, the evil that once was ripped my pedigree off me, what then is nostalgia if I don't understand its definite longings? To retrace our steps back home is a long walk to provenance, on a lost train of thought found between ancestral derail & providence, we are trying to live past the wounds but its effects still ripples, for our existence is a memory of a lost people...
