Carried: S.I.D.S. (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) (II)
“I looked at what this would take, and it was more than what I came with.”
This entry holds an ending as a turning back at the threshold rather than as a fault located in anyone. It identifies no cause, assigns no failure to those who were present, and offers nothing that should be handed to a person in grief as an account of what happened. Where it speaks, it speaks about an arrival that did not continue, and it declines to make that into evidence about anybody. What the shape asks for is that the ending be left without a culprit attached to it.
Baldr, mourned by everything that existed, whose going was not owed to any failure of love around him. The form implies a task: to let the grief be total without making it an indictment.
