Whatever


nov 21 whenever  was the prompt, but i looked at it once and then ruminated on 'whatever,' so that's what i wrote instead.  not sure it's worth keeping, but if i do, it needs a title.

"Whatever you do,
don't give away the ending,"
we say of books, movies,
the punchline of a joke.

The prize, the crown,
the finish line -- all come
at the end of effort.
Whatever you do

don't let go of hope,
the soul's anchor.
