Death meets us all, spilling its shadow into the unknown; the curve of our lives completing itself in endings frayed by private histories. And those we leave behind will know their grief the same; the privileged, the ordinary, whose sorrow sings on different winds, yet every song a sharing of its own ineffable loss.
