a mistake

the ending was a mistake

it lacked the excitement and action
a story needs
to conclude
properly

I should have written in a cannibalistic giant
or a fire-breathing dragon

it would have sprung from the middle
of the earth
and devoured
all the characters

so I rewrote it

it was one hundred percent
better

I changed the beginning
and the middle, too
