“The Piece Was Like An Elegant Interrogation Made Of Tangled Yarn, A Query From A Well-dressed Man In A Casket, Not Yet Dead. It Proceeded Slowly, Like A Careful Equation, And Then Not: If X = Y, If Major = Minor, If Death Equals Part Of Life And Life Part Of Death, Then What Is The Sum Of The Infinite Notes Of This One Phrase? It Asked, Answered, Reasked, Its Moody Asking A Refinement Of Reluctance Or Dislike.”
