The Last Place

Hans OstromContemplative

Not long from now nor far from here’s the place where all that matters now, even if it matters then, must matter to somebody else.

To anyone who finds this note: good luck and look ahead to your last place not far, not long from when and where you read this—your eyes, your mind alive and quick and liquid, not concerned with doom.

Ah, bless you on your way to where what matters now must matter to someone besides the one you are, the one I am.
