A Thousand Bodies

I keep seeing dead animals along the side of the roads I walk. Deer. Rabbits. Skunks. The works. I guess there were probably always this many. I just didn't notice them until now.

Really, the only difference between them and us is that we like to hide our bodies. Pump them full of chemicals and stuff them in coffins, like they never died at all. We'd rather pretend to be immortal than admit that we're no different from roadkill.
