1 " Git behind me, grief. It's my future I'm working for now.But grief don't go away just like that. Grief nips at your heels, and if you think you've outrun it, you'll find grief waiting for you on the cargo deck when you hide there after dark. Grief ripples in the silver water and grief slips between the moonlit trees on the riverbank and grief rings in the fiddle music coming from the dance saloon above.And when the stars shine bright, and you're trying to sleep between the cotton bales, grief's there, too. Look up at the sky, and you'll feel like grief is infinite, stretching out forever, past the speckles of light into the unknown. "
