History

There is a moment, a simple moment, before history gets recorded.
Before it goes into the books.
Before it appears as a question on a game show.
Or on a midterm exam.
A moment right before the headline is written.
There is a moment when history lives in the present.
When we can watch it unfold in real time, right before our eyes.
And we can all assume our place in it.
Some people life for history.
We live for the moment just before.
