What It Was I Said

What I didn’t say wasn’t said. That’s the funny thing.
How can you know, if I didn’t.

It’s a question of what’s remembered:
maybe someone heard
and recorded or copied it down.

Records can be faked.

That’s the thing with time: it moves on
and takes along everything with it.

Such is our ready perception. 
But, being human, we may be wrong!
