Quatrain of Remembering Rubbish

Remembering Rubbish - what is important to you
is usually not to me

Not all events that happen will make
history, many are allowed
to wither and
die,

The ones that become stories to tell
are usually ones that have
caught a fool's
eye.

We view the past from the perspective
of others, the tales that are
spun are forced upon
us,

History is not what happened long ago,
it is what might have happened,
and are not worth the
fuss.
