No one ever said changing was easy. But no one ever explained why I should.

Some things come to an end. Things change and we are forced to make a tough decision.

If you lost your innocence and there was no badger involved, you were one of the lucky ones.

A story of time flying past unnoticed, revealing unexpected consequences.

Learning the rules of life can take time. But sometimes, things change in a single night...

By Christopher Barnes

Sparky Mark, the holiday rep
crept into crabbedness,
twisting himself
into a sloth-shouldered space helmet.
No more body-popping,
trap-clapping about.

The space walk globe-trotters
were life-weary
with his sneaking gag-man blurts,
smutty babble.

No more clouds-on-horizon games
rollicky in the skylab go-cart.

Captain Strop was strapping
re-Marking too much glee
upset him,

Spreading your wings and flying away takes a lot of energy. And all that energy can bring you down.
