THE UNDERTAKING-THOMAS LYNCH






"IN THIS WAY, THE DEAD I BURY AND BURN ARE LIKE THE DEAD BEFORE THEM, FOR WHOM TIME AND SPACE HAVE BECOME MORTALLY UNIMPORTANT. THIS LOSE OF INTEREST IS, I FACT, ONE OF THE FIRST SURE SIGNS THAT SOMETHING SERIOUS IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN. THE NEXT THING IS THEY QUIT BREATHING. AT THIS POINT, TO BE SURE, A GUNSHOT WOUND TO THE CHEST OR SHOCK AND TRAUMA WILL GET MORE INK THAN A CVA OR ASHD, BUT NO CAUSE OF DEATH IS ANY LESS PERMANENT THAN THE OTHER. ANY ONE WILL DO. THE DEAD DON'T CARE."
