A Lesson Of Wisdom

A lesson of wisdom from the days of  old

The winners write the history as we have been told

And only the winners remembered by name

Their reward for winning is enduring fame

Though they may have achieved victory in the foulest way

The winners in war are remembered today

Their murderous troops guilty of many a crime

But they are remembered through the decades of time

Criminal war leaders with darkness of soul

On unarmed enemy civilians their murderous armies took toll

Today in their Countries their names on every memorial wall

It is the winners who write the history after all

The difference between winning and losing can be great

Their own history for themselves the winners create

For losers there is never a victory parade

From history they are allowed for to fade

It is the winners write the history would you not agree

This is how it is and how it always will be

The most of the glory goes to those who have won

It is a winners Human World when all is said and done.
