History, our story

No one changes what happens to them.
History is the story of one unhappy family
and a family is a group of strangers who live together.

Casually

I would manage by some trick
To switch the talk to eels
Or lore of the horse and cart
Or the Provisionals.

But my tentative art
His turned back watches too:
He was blown to bits
Out drinking in a curfew
