(hum your own dirge, if you're the type.)

This is the end. 

No, no, that's not true. The end was a little while ago.

A wound, a sickness, an accident. This is after the end. A ship ride to the afterlife, though it's hard to tell where it could be going. The seas are dark, even when the skies are bright, and it's hard to see too far off the sides and through the portholes.

It could be a beginning, instead, for the positive thinkers, or those who (think they've) wasted their lives. There are many on this boat, after all, be they enjoying the odd-but-comforting air on the top, or trying to relax below-decks. Who knows what bonds might be formed on the way?

Here's an interesting sight: a diminutive, probably malnourished child, in a ratty old yellow raincoat, hiding in the shadows of the stairs that lead to a raised deck. She's crouched in the corner and seems to have no intention of leaving. Dare to approach?
