President Kennedy's death
It showed us something we'd never recover from.
Mistrust.
Georg Friedrich Handel gives us, as consolation, this St. Cecilia's Day Ode.

Stirb und werde
After film Wit in class, Ikkyu concludes the evening:
I won’t die.
I won’t go anywhere.
I’ll always be here.
But don’t ask me any questions.
I won’t answer.
(– The Death Poem of Ikkyu)From death mask, a brief pause, to eternal face.

Om mane padme hum
Some days Emanuel feels closer than others.
Peace and good will.
As well.
