LIVING & Dying--We Feed The Fire

I am a man & men are animals who tell stories.
This is a gift from our Gods who spoke our species into existence but left the end of our story untold.
That mystery is troubling to us all.
How could it be otherwise?
Without the final part, we think, how are we to make sense of all that went before: which is to say, our lives ?
So we make stories of our own, in fevered & envious imitation of our gods.
Hoping that we will tell by chance, what was left untold & finishing our tale, come to understand why we were born.
