Epitaph

Jan 17, 2006 01:10

The flesh surrenders itself. Eternity takes back its own.

Our bodies stirred these waters briefly, danced with a certain intoxication before the love of life and self, dealth with a few strange ideas, then submitted to the instruments of time.

What can we say of this? I occurred. I am not, yet… I occurred.

Best damn epitaph I ever encountered, from the best damn writer I ever encountered.

And for what it's worth, the closest I come to a personal motto, from the same writer:

The unclouded eye is better, no matter what it sees.

That is all.
