selective are our memories
bold and imaginative
not reality but what we recall
as if our thoughts rewrite
all past tragedies,
successes and indifference
adjusted by our temperaments
and self-incriminations...
along with facts poorly recorded
and lives lost who might
remember it differently...
we criticize the imprecise
yet that is what we are or
have become when recollecting,
pillars of frankness gone awry.
