Once upon a time there was a pilgrim
who walked to the end of the world.
Her journey was long and fraught with dangers
like wild dogs and thieves
and broken hearts. She followed
the old path until there was nothing
but an empty space in all directions.
But it was not for her alone. Hundreds
of other pilgrims stood a safe distance
from the edge, laughing and taking photographs.
As she walked past them
the sun was sinking lower and lower
until a beautiful evening glowed
from beneath. And it was almost dark
as she took her final step into silence.
