Two such as you with such a master speed From one another once you are agreed that life is only life forevermore together wing to wing and oar to oar."

They are gaunt, mean shadows that bite the ground like teeth. As the sun nears the horizon, its benevolent yellow begins to deepen, to become infected, until it glares an angry inflamed orange. It throws a variegated glow over the horizon."
"The sky already fell. Now what?"
