how do you embrace the end? to transliterate from my favorite poet, jibananada das, this is how it would seem: those who smelled the soil and watched the lights of stars, those who knew the gods and the humans, they will fall in love with death. the only urge that will remain with them will be the urge to explore darkness. a darkness that remains luminous, transient. a darkness that will live after everything ends.
