Rick Bass Quotes
Buried Him Next To My Cabin Door, In That Sunken, Blissful Spot Where He Had Napped, Always Waiting For The Next Hunt: Beneath The Wild Rose Bushes. I Buried Him, As I Had Ann, With Bones And Antlers And Venison And Dog Food And A Wreath Of Cedar And Lupine. I Buried Him With Shells, Both 12- And 20-gauge, For Whenever We Went Hunting Again, And I Put In Extras Because I Knew I'd Miss Some Shots. The Bones And Wings Of His Quarry. A Whistle, A Brass Bell. Then The Earth Back In Over Him, And New Grief In Over Old Grief, Like A Mountain Eroding To Bury With Its Disintegrating Sediments, Disintegrating Heart And Body, Something Bright And Valuable Below.
