Everything is dead there and nothing is alive. Not everyone who lives to be old embraces the publicity of it all. I mean, you get up and folks want to know, How did you get here? What makes you go? What is the secret? And there is no secret except there are many things that build the years out.

Not everyone who lives to be old embraces the publicity of it all. I mean, you get up and folks want to know, How did you get here? What makes you go? What is the secret? And there is no secret except there are many things that build the years out. They are not vegetables every day and working out but a faith that all of these things add up and lead us to some sum total happiness we can cash in for forever love in the face of never lasting. ---Amy King, from “Ancient Sunlight,” published in Poem-a-Day

how do we know that the stars are not dead? and if the stars are dead, how do we know that we are not too? we are only alive because of the light of a star, aren't we?
