    This is the last leaf
    in the year’s book.
    Now I come to grief
    as the earth’s breast goes hard and mean
    and hay is packed for the manger.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Death does determine life.... Once life is finished it acquires a sense; up to that point it has not got a sense; its sense is suspended and therefore ambiguous. However, to be sincere I must add that for me death is important only if it is not justified and rationalized by reason. For me death is the maximum of epicness and death.
    Pier Paolo Pasolini (1922–1975)
