...Tainted memories
By SolApathy
Into the lies of mirrors told
Beckons the falsehoods of memories bold
Lies unfettered become buried deep in time
Transforming into a truth unkind
Banners raised and war called to cause
All on a memory so deeply flawed
Into battle words are thrown
Becoming quickly the broken bone
Soon to pass as bullets fly past
Striking the innocent of lies carelessly passed.
Beckons the falsehoods of memories bold
Lies unfettered become buried deep in time
Transforming into a truth unkind
Banners raised and war called to cause
All on a memory so deeply flawed
Into battle words are thrown
Becoming quickly the broken bone
Soon to pass as bullets fly past
Striking the innocent of lies carelessly passed.

one thing, after reading your authors note... history is written by the conquerors not the conquered... so history itself is always flawed...
