The whole poem is great, but that ending is straight up wildfire, man --

"At the end of all things

is a place flush with people....

At the end of each world

and the beginning

was the earth."

Good. I haven't revisited it yet. I think it feels trued.

How to write down any thoughts……they swirl like a Pillar of Whirlwind, like leaves caught up in a dust devil that dances past barn roofs and pull shingles up into the sky in mockery of what we think will hold. I did see the boy, I saw him put things down, put them down. I saw him surrender. Revelation.

Andrew, I really love how these are the stories that are so dear to me and yet you have made them again and I love them here too. My Mind tumbles along with the images just so happy to be in this world of your poem.

After listening to this a couple times, something important to me was missing. I edited it in just now. Will fix the audio later. Love hearing any thoughts.
