You Can'T Go Back
For those who dwell in memory, looking
Upon what they saw as a golden age.
Seeking to turn back those hands of time,
Instead of a better story, by turning the page.
As if impaled by seductive reasoning,
With delusion and fake news to underlie.
Maintaining ignorance towards the factual,
While reality and science stand by.
Being aware of yesterday is important,
Yet moving ahead is the only path true.
Since history is there to teach of a future,
Not to reside in a past with no view.
