FUGUE STATE

Ted
Pearson (U.S.A.)
Death everywhere, but nothing
to die for. Every cause has its
lethal effects. The death
of love is but a local instance.
Heroic acts are largely unconscious.
Martyrs are pawns to ideology.
A dying man, alone with his
thoughts, asks no more than he
now can recall. The dead, being
dead, ask for nothing at all.
