      The View From Halfway Down is my favorite poem. Even outside the show. My dad killed himself when I was 15, so it hits hard every time I read or hear it

      Yes! Also has one of my favorite subtle details of this show. You might already know about it, as it is quite well known by now, but still…

      The poem changes grammatical person. It starts with the third, then second, then first. 3… 2…1…

      Not quite sure why, but this simple thing adds so much to me.
