Before you know it you’re dead and out of
the picture, of life anyhow, you’re dead and maybe that’s a life of its own but anyway that’s what happens to us all, I know because they say so at Sunday School and I say it as well, I’ve seen it in roadkill on the turnpike and my own mutt who got crushed over and over so by the time I scraped him off the road you couldn’t get much deader than he was though that’s the body–maybe when you’re dead you’re just dead and there’s no further killing to ever hurt you anymore unless you’re like me and found him. And yet he came when called, and I called and I called and I called. – Gale Acuff |
