on the long bridge into town. The only reminders that a man lost his life in the early hours of the morning are skid marks and a boom that contains the diesel that flowed into the lake from the semi that he had a head on collision with...

"The Ghost in man, the ghost that once was man
But cannot wholly free itself from Man,
Are calling to each other thro' a dawn
Stranger than earth has ever seen; the veil
Is rending, and the voices of the day
Are heard across the Voices of the dark".

ALFRED LORD TENNYSON (1809-1892)
