They sang as if they were playing chimes, Polack and Red and Minetta, gathered together at the sternAt every pause Polack would blow out his cheeks and go "Waah-waaaah," like a trumpet when it is fanned with a muteGradually it was catching the others"Where's Wilson?" one of them shouted, and they all stopped for a momentThey had heard the news of his death but it hadn't registeredAnd suddenly he was deadThe knowledge shocked them, loosed the familiar unreality of war and death, and the song wavered over a syllable or two"I'm gonna miss that old sonofabitch," Polack said "C'mon, let's keep going," Red mutteredGuys came and guys went, and after a while you didn't even remember their names "Roll me over in the clover They passed a bend in the island and saw Mount Anaka in the distance"Boy, did we climb that?" Wyman asked Some of them scrambled up the side, pointing out slopes of the mountain to each other, arguing whether they had climbed each particular ridgeThey had a startled pride in themselves"It's a big sonofabitch "We did okay to go as far as we did That was the main sentimentAlready they were thinking how they would tell it to their buddies in other platoons "We just got lost in the shuffleEverybody's gonna have a story to tell And that pleased them tooThe final sustaining ironies The song was still going on | | Sunday, January 2nd, 2011 | | 2:46 am |

July @@@@@She'd seen it passing Dunmore Landing July was not a month when many people toured the SouthShe was one of only a dozen passengersShe sat under an awning on the upper deck fanning herself and cursing mourning dress for its long-sleeved, high-necked sweltering effect in the Southern summer heatA man in a tall top hat striped red and white bellowed commentary through a megaphoneIt made her angrier by the minuteLook at all those fat-faced Yankees, she thought with hatred, they're just lapping this upCruel slave owners, indeed! Sold down the river, my foot! We loved our darkies just like family, and some of them owned us more than we owned themUncle Tom's CabFiddle-dee-dee! No decent person would read that kind of trashShe wished she hadn't given in to the impulse to comeIt w only going to upset herIt was already upsetting her, and they weren't even out of the harbor and into the Ashley River yet Mercifully, the commentator ran out of things to say and for a long while the only sound was the thunk-thunk of the pistons and the splash of water as it fell from the wheelMarsh grass was green and gold on both sides with wide moss-hung oaks on the riverbank behind it Dragonflies darted through the midge-dancing air above the grass; occasionally a fish leapt from the water, then flopped back in Scarlett sat quietly, removed from the other passengers, nursing her rancorRhett's plantation was ruined, and he was doing nothing to save itCamellias! At Ballyhara, she had hundreds of acres of healthy crops where she had found rank weeds And she had rebuilt an entire town, while he just sat and stared at his burnt chimneysThat's why she had come on the paddleboat, she told herselfIt would make her feel good to see how far she was outstripping himScarlett tensed before each bend, relaxed when it was past and Rhett's house had not appearedShe'd forgotten Ashley BaronyJulia Ashley's big square brick house looked magnificently forbidding in the center of its unadorned lawn"This is the only plantation the heroic Union forces did not destroy," bawled the man in the absurd hat | | Saturday, January 1st, 2011 | | 2:46 am |

I would rather have believed that I was–that my fear of pain was stronger than anything elseThe real reason I opened my mouth and spoke was so much more pathetic I wanted toplease him, this human who hated me so fiercely “The Seeker,” I began, my voice rough and hoarse; I hadn't spoken in a long time He interrupted, impatient“We already know it's a Seeker “No, not just any Seeker,” I whispered “What do you mean,your Seeker?” “Assigned to me, following meShe's the reason –” I caught myself just before I spoke the word that would have meant our de | | Friday, December 31st, 2010 | | 2:46 am |
