The End That Refuses to End

This is the final text in the series, or at least it has the confidence to introduce itself that way. The last page is a dramatic creature. It wants applause, closure, and a respectable exit.

But every final page becomes a first page for someone reading it later. A conclusion is not a wall; it is a door pretending to be punctuation. The work continues through whoever reads, translates, questions, rejects, or transforms it. Eternity does not end. It changes hands.

Eternity does not begin when time becomes endless. It begins when a decision, a page, or a work refuses to expire.
