Quatrain of Understanding Aborted

Understanding Aborted. - never comes
to full term

History, the teacher of
the past, a portrayal
showing what's
approaching.

History, parsed by current
thought often skewed
by political
poaching.

History, taken from the
context from which it
was born then easily
distorted,

History, our nobly grand
understanding of the
future often
aborted.
