once, as my heart remembers
goodbye pluto. you will be sorely missed by those of us who think nine is a better number than eight.
and the acronym doesn't work any more.
poor little schoolkids.
"mommy, what are the planets?"
"mercury, venus, earth, mars, jupiter, saturn, uranus, neptune, pluto"
"but they said there are only eight!"
"ah, right. not pluto. i remember back in my day, when pluto was a planet..."
all the stars were fallen embers
