but it felt like it
when looking back,
and remembering
when children
suddenly were no longer
happy with their lives.
when
did this occur?
was it understanding of
how the world
was built.
the end of a summer?
was it the discovery of money,
or sex,
or that a lifetime of work
lay ahead?
what undid the magic
of childhood.
stole away the rainbows
and unicorns,
was it something
in your parent's eyes.
something in the news.
the first
brush with someone else's
death?
