So Long, Pluto
Let us
hail the dark and lonely god
who is no more—erase
a lifetime of lessons—unlearn
the once-proud furthest brother,
icon of my distant dreams.
(Shepherd of
my orbit.)
Verily,
modern ancients

as space.
We (r)evolve.
You spin away.

I like this very much. Poor Pluto. I wonder how Mickey's dog feels.
Thanks! I have a daughter named "Venus," so maybe that's why it hit me so hard...:)
Yes, that's life. One day you're a mighty planet, a big mover in the solar system, a name on everyone's lips, and the next you're just another dwarf asteroid iceball floating aimlessly around in space.
