The summary of life
Is not an honest poem.
It lies and cheats,
Is dishonest and prevaricates.

History has its ups and downs,
But only the victor tells the tale.
The true history and the truth,
Is always lost to the sands of time.

"To the victor go the spoils"
Is an easy phrase to say.
Until you are no longer the victor,
And your history has gone astray.

Hence the next time
History has you fascinated,
Remember that half of it
Has been completely fabricated.
