Prologue
I awoke into a headache. It was (it is) a continuation of (from) yesterday. It's not just the result of allergies, (the pollen "thick and warm"), but the ongoing inundation of Grief and Sorrow (now TEN years worth).
There's a line from Faulkner's ABSALOM, ABSALOM that has {verberated} and reverberated like the echo from a cathedral bell, tolling,, tolling,,, tolling ; It is this , "It was snowing, and it was gonna snow". Faulkner delivers this line as `dead certainty`, a Certainty of INEVITABLE Ongoing. Here, there would be NO Cessation, NO Relief and NO Consolation nor Solace. Here, the driving snow was gonna BURY the land with a covering of Misery and even Death . Here, wildlife would go hungry .
So it is with Grief and Sorrow ~~~~~~
