The Grave

I saw your wife the other day. I drove to the store bearing our name, Sutphin Sporting and Archery, and introduced myself. The guys were skeptical until I displayed a license bearing our name. Your photograph hangs on the wall. Gimlet eye, perfect posture—such beautiful lines—you were a modern-day Adonis: Olympic musculature, calm mien as you held a bow like Orion before the beast.
