    This is the highest tribute we can pay him, our appreciation for his superlative writing, his incomparable writing.

I do not want a plain box, I want a sarcophagus
With tigery stripes, and a face on it
Round as the moon, to stare up.
I want to be looking at them when they come
Picking among the dumb minerals, the roots.
I see them already-the pale, star-distance faces.
Now they are nothing, they are not even babies.
I imagine them without fathers or mothers, like the first gods.
They will wonder if I was important.

I believe that number one, we owe it to our taxpayers to explore what our lands are worth and what we want to do. This in no way obligates us to accept offers.
