When did Europe Turn its Back on History?

When did Europe turn its back on history?
We got trapped in the garden of tumbling walls,
wrapped up in a retelling of 1984
that fell on us as the fairytale of 1989.
Its happy beginnings could not even make it out alive into the new decade.
As for the moral
Only this
We are doomed listeners ever after
To distant drums, no more
Of war.
