To delve involves more than the implied shove,
It incorporates the questing mind, a curiosity and a sense of purpose.
They who delve do so with more than a grain of passion,
Poets delve where gravediggers don't.
The difference being,
One puts his heart into the pursuit
Where the other only puts his back into it.
The very act of delving paints one as being worthy of regard....
And in delving one generates a curiosity
In they who observe.
Produces a curiosity as to the possible outcome.
Paints a tension between creation and destruction
Between preservation and loss.
Moves the human impulse to resist
Becoming just another transitional data point.
