Once upon a time
\nWhen we were kids
\nAnd we felt like kids
\nAnd we thought like kids
\nAnd we could watch a puppet show on a sunny Saturday afternoon and not understand the undertone of death and what that meant because
\nThat was so far away, and
\nSomething for someone else to worry about
\n\u00a0
\nOnce upon that time
\nWhen we were simple
\nAnd we felt simple
\nAnd we thought simple
\nAnd we enjoyed the small things like sitting in the sun on Saturday afternoon and watching a puppet show and not understanding the allegory of death, not even looking for it just
\nWatching the people be pulled back and forth and
\nLaughing with rings of fading daisies in our hair
\n\u00a0
\nBack upon this time
\nWhen time was endless
\nAnd time was simple
\nAnd we were kids
\nWho didn\u2019t realise and didn\u2019t see that the allegory was about us and that soon enough we would be the puppets
\npulled on strings
\nOn sunny Saturday
