"How does it end?"

"In failure .... death of the child.  The ghost wins."

The wind blows light up from the coals and I see Sylvia look at me startled.

"But thats another land and another time," I say.  "Here life is the end and
ghosts have no meaning.  I believe that.   I believe in all this too," I
say, looking out at the darkened prairie, "although I'm not sure of what it
all means yet.... I'm not sure of much of anything these days.  Maybe that's
why I talk so much."
