It's just not fair. For years, no one dared to cross the line and say anything against the show or its protagonists. On the contrary, people used to cling to their TV sets, whenever it or one of its early reruns where broadcast. Then, all of a sudden, with one silly little phrase by Nick Hornby (which was, admittedly, really funny) times changed. Cosby was out.
Merely reduced to ridicule, the sweater, once worn or even knitted and worn by just about everyone, became a symbol for dullness and the petit bourgeois himself, small-minded and insular.
But it's not fair. We all have developed since back then. We all took off the jumpers and reached out to highspeed internet and microfibre. And so would have Cosby, if the show had continued to the very day. Back then it was actually something new. And we need not deny that we might have enjoyed it - in those good old times. Do the maths, folks!

You see, here you'll find poems and prose of opportunity and seasons. They're ours, though, so we have to protect them. Respect! Thank you!
Readers are welcome! If you are willing to follow the iconian path, you should know that it is always you we are talking to, even if it is not. And that everything is true, even if it is not. We all are eternally united in the last space possible where even the impossible is real. We ought to believe the foretold: If we'll meet tomorrow, next year, or never, it doesn't matter, it's only time! And everything, even time is fiction.
By the way, typos and other mistakes - we know there are many. If you can be bothered, please let us know. Thank you! And for any legal issues, please contact us before we have to tell you that we're skinned. But you can also write, of course, if you like what you read. Please, write to the webmaster.
