My brother, in the hospital, gravely ill, a vigil

Thank you for sharing this very personal—and, perhaps, transtragic?—slice of life and death and reconnection in this zone between worlds which is the Corona interregnum.

I am reminded that we dedicated our Paradise Lost reading yesterday to your dear brother, and that you shared your story about the hot chocolate during our discussion of the war in heaven which the angel Raphael describes.

Godspeed, dear brothers (and sisters) everywhere! Where is our home now? What alien arms of the lucid deep will hold us now?

Let us rest in those arms, rest in those arms… witness the pain and the beauty that surrounds us… let go of the weight of the world and rest.
