History
i saw a shirt on sale in Maine
which said, "well behaved girls
rarely make history."
technically true, but
forgetting to add that
poorly behaved girls
don't make any history either.
men make history-
but rarely for things by which
you would want to be known,
mostly for war
or religion.
the world dreams
of making history
while the
history must dream only of
unmaking itself.
