There is a history of History in your beautiful poem.You really made us know that history is something more than the record of the past by exploring its horizon.

Very interesting take on historians! I really liked the 'befuddled bookman'. You're right about staying with floor exercise in poetry. Don't dare go into cervical spine. Enjoyed reading this one. Out of the ordinary!

I take it you are the 'History Reader'. Forgive me if this is above my head, somehow the English misses the mark for me, although the title is intriguing. Read mine - A Writer's Delimma - Adeline
