Bridge

Trying to build a bridge

from one end of the abyss 

to the other, just to 

have it suffer the very

same lot as the 

Bridge of Arta, built 

by daylight, crumbling

by nightfall. 

 

Another immurement to 

end the curse and 

save the day, just like

at Arta? And how much

more blood to be claimed

by the mortar?

These are indeed interesting musings, Aviva, I wish I had an answer!?

Maybe better to make a show and spectacle of yourself having a good time at one side of the abyss and wait unconcernedly until any of those from the other side builds the bridge... Although, you might need to be concerned as to which type of people might try and build that bridge, and for what purpose... Maybe it is better that some spaces do not get bridged... Maybe you should pretend not to be in a good place having a good time.

Thank you, Stephen ?.
Even if it could afford to, would it have the humility to do so?

Good one. Perhaps some spaces should just not be bridged. Or can mankind afford to admit defeat?
