A death blow

Our life dreams the Utopia. Our death achieves the Ideal. 

Victor Hugo.

Death makes angels of us all

& gives us wings

where we had shoulders

smooth as raven's

claws

Jim Morrison.

Funerals all over the world everywhere every minute. Shovelling them under by the cartload doublequick. Thousands every hour. Too many in the world.

James Joyce. "Ulises"
