Explosive Ending Expanding
A simple poem about the encounter with gentle beasts, gorgeous ponies, ends with amazing bravura…
She is black and white,conclusion to "A Blessing" by James Wright
Her mane falls wild on her forehead,
And the light breeze moves me to caress her long ear
That is delicate as the skin over a girl’s wrist.
Suddenly I realize
That if I stepped out of my body I would break
Into blossom.

So much depends on those line endings that break... those line breaks that prolong the ending...
And so for day 1737
