Blessed

“Sickness comes to us all, Mr. Dillon.... We never know when, we never know why, we never know how. The only blessed thing we know is it’ll come at the most inconvenient, unexpected time. Just when you’ve got tickets to the World Series. And that’s the way the permanent waves.”
—Donald E. Westlake (b. 1933)

“They say that my donkey-hearted lover
might leave sometime tomorrow.
Grow long, Blessed Night,
so that for him
tomorrow just won’t be.”

“And Cumhal saw like a drifting smoke
All manner of blessed souls,
Women and children, young men with books,
And old men with croziers and stoles.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
