A part of humanity’s history
They did not steal, they swapped.
What was, was.
The participants — material.
They taught the descendants mankurtism,
Raised a pedestal to the leader.

Manipulations — that too is history,
Rewritten textbooks,
Grief crowned with glory,
Heroes — collaborator-renegades.

Only conscience remains,
Memory unclouded,
A tale pressed into the subconscious,
Dispatched to God’s judgments.
