This poem feels, incomplete, in a sense. As if there's a second half to it that leaves me wanting.

Is that why there's am I there? I am looking forward to the II

Commenting on this text and the next:
Highly absorbing to be informed some of your private person! Your other texts become even more lucid and lightly breathed through this.
Question: What are your thoughts on the present state of HISTORY? History is always tainted, even deeply coloured, by the trends, politics and desires of the contemporary world. History changes, changes, changes - as photographs may be retouched, like they often were in the Soviet Union.
Also, one may change one's way of regarding certain past events, one may revalue all values, like Nietzsche said. How valid is one period's way of seeing history, compared to earlier ways? What is your response to the fact that present history will be revalued or even erased, later on?
The bottom line, to me, is that HISTORY is one side of the PRESENT, the same way our memories are constructed NOW. History is not a "correct" opinion on an earlier world; just one of innumerable possible ways of constructing the past, in always very thin and scattered layers of trends and finite understanding. But interesting!!!

I wonder how you, as a teacher, see the revisionism that's occurring (at least in the U.S., but I suspect everywhere).

Thank goodness for teachers with passion for their subject!
