YOUR HEART does not stop

your veins, you phn walk and
move. You can walk slowly into
a room and sit down and compose
yourself. You may want to run

screaming for assurance that what

they ' have gotten to him. He’s
comfortable now. . Perhaps- he
doesn’.t feel. They’ve given him a
merciful opiate. They always do,
don’t they? Please make them!
Don’t let him suffer.
“Yes, isn’t it dreadful?” you
hear yourself say.
And that face that you know
as Bill, which floats toward you
and away from you, says, "Sayre ?
Say, Alix, isn’t that the man who

you used to work for?”
And you say, “Yes,” and that’s
all you can say. You get upon
your feet and murmur, “Excuse
me,” as though you were going
upstairs for your purse.
You even walk upstairs slowly
