The concept of finality is a transient one, unless weâre talking about death. Everything else seems to me non-final. We can say that something has ended â a marriage, a job, college, parenthood, an amputated limb â but it has a way of resurrecting, like her decision never to read poetry again.
I had to laugh at your suggestion on âmarvel and laugh,â not because it isnât metrically better, it is, but because you hold such a high regard for meter. You are a poet, while I am a mere philosopher.
