20 Essays on the End of the World

I've been hatching this idea for a while, and it has refused to go away or take coherent form. Since it won't naturally coalesce into a well-shaped idea, I will accept the amorphous nature therein and commence my diatribe on the End of the World. The natural reading of this due to popular context will be the commencement of the cosmos, rather than the purpose of the planet as might be intended. I say might, because at this point, I really don't know which topic, the cessation or the goal, to entirely devote myself to. It might be that the end of the word and the end of the world are very similarly grouped. When we come to the world, and its intended end in creation, we come to the ultimate snuffing out of all things, and after the last coal extinguishes, the rebirth and re-realization of the earth's intention. By going far enough north, we shall make good time towards the south lands. So over the next few weeks there will be twenty rambling attempts to make good sense of hide and hair, and if not...then not.
