Sharon, I like the exp with emptiness in the breaks between the words fore and aft in the last two lines, then the bird tracks. Gives good physical manifestation to the opening commentary. Which, tho informative, might be totally dropped.

There are ways to be overcome with grief -- one breaks down, cries always;
or -- one shuts down, feels nothing, except silent, disconnected tears on
the face, in the morning, in the evening -- grief without feeling, without
content.



It's only habit that holds me together.
