First Person Narrative: The Writer’s Perspective on Death
Published in

Life and death conserve a circle. Why writers write. And, readers read.
Both life and death conserve a circle, because you can’t have one without the other. This is true for everything (any X and Y) (X and X’) (X and X).
Therefore, the first person narrative articulates life in a circle with death, and the third person narrative articulates death in a circle with life, and, depending on, what time of day, and what time of year, when and where (and if) you were born, you will choose (prefer) one over the other.
Doesn’t matter. From the circle’s point of view, we all end up in the same place (second person narrative). (Neither life nor death, always life, always death.) Half of everything is, always, everything.
