Yes, but is it "History is the Daughter of Time" or
"History is written by the winners" ?
History is made by winners and losers and is written by the sons and daughters of time.

History has function in our present; not in our past
Reality is real at the moment but doesn't last
A cricket hops where it hops
Velikosky can't make it stop
Our last crenelled future has been reset but not recast

History is made by winners and losers and is written by the sons and daughters of time.
I once wrote a History of Beds and sent it to Henry Ford for comment. He replied, "It's like I said before, History is Bunk."_________________________

The crenel in the parapet
Is made for those who did not get
An armor for a shield
Thus on the cricket field
It's wise to wear a helmet
History is wonderful trough of facts and fiction.

The man who draws near's my Bête Noire
I think he's a berk
And he drives me berserk -
But what can I do? - He's my Pa!!
