And it's part of the way storytelling works. Your image of storytelling is around a campfire or around a fireplace, or maybe, you know, with a bedside lamp on. There's always a sense of a clearing of light and then just sort of darkness all around you; that's the nature of telling a story, that you're creating a little clearing But then what happens at the end of life, in an ideal world, would be like what happens at the end of a book or a movie -- that that story is wound up, that it has some meaningful conclusion Fatally human We hover in the world Fatal someone We flounder in the dark Take hold of another Go mad in a moment The soil and the wonder Sway to the terror Nothing is simple But sometimes things are good Fatally human Joy and dirt and blood Take hold of another Go mad in a moment The soil and the sutures Sway to the terror All of the lifetimes calling Blood on the floor and birds on the ceiling Hopeless and selfless, hopeless and selfish Dusting a lamp that cries in the darkness That's that one point where we should be allowed to forgive things that need forgiving, to close things that need closing, just to find a sense of authorship. And of course, what happens is the opposite, normally; that person becomes like a 'bit part', like a cameo All of the lifetimes calling Blood on the floor and birds on the ceiling Hopeless and selfless, hopeless and selfish Dusting a lamp that cries in the darkness All of the lifetimes calling Blood on the floor and birds on the ceiling Hopeless and selfless, hopeless and selfish Dusting a lamp that cries in the darkness
