Back Dropping

Back Dropping

Just because I was wrong
on certain issues of my day
based on 21st Century philosophies
applied through the prism of history
does NOT necessarily make me
the monster you wanna assign me to be...Β 

Gotta temper subjective judgements
within the context of my times...

So stop poking us ghosts
that offend your woke sensibilitiesΒ 
lest we rise from our rumbling graves
and start haunting
your current hypocrisies
that will be future fodder inspection
for archeological outrage dissections

Β

I agree it is very wrong by our evolved cultural standards today, but as recently as 70 years ago this was the the norm for much of society... I wonder what cultural norms today will be considered morally wrong decades from now
