conversations with dead people

The hardest conversations to have are the ones where nobody speaks.

"We don't even have Arlington anymore. They built over it. Seventy years ago, It's...it's still Arlington, I guess, but it's buildings housing urns. They dug everyone up and cremated 'em, needed the fucking space."

His men. His commanders. His friends.

His parents.

The hardest thing about all of the unfinished conversations?

"They built over it."

Is that there's no place left to have them.
