A False Premise
Some stories rest
under unspoken words,
under unspoken words,
beneath layers of years
Shall I excavate
a buried narrative,
a buried narrative,
dust off the detritus,
shake it
shake it
and let it breathe
The story itself is tame,
but spools
into a chronicle
that rests on a flimsy base
but spools
into a chronicle
that rests on a flimsy base
Authentic history
requires primary sources
requires primary sources
Yet, I cannot decide
