D.S. AL CODA

In truth—or all
likelihood at least

the very last
time you do
something—doesn't feel very

much at all 
like 
the first;

but it does tend
to resemble—almost 
exactly! the next-

to-most
recent—which only 
makes it all-

too-easy
to presciently understand 
the vague 

blush that keeps welling-
up
as you muddle

through the task:
having come 

at last
in glory—to judge

the living and 
the dead—

just feels kind
of awkward—if not 
downright 

counterproductive!
to the whole scheme 

of a kingdom that has 
no end—
