Golden boys and golden girls must, like the chimney sweep, turn to dust. Approximate Shakespeare, but it is an evocation of wounded vets returning to the scenes of their youthful triumphs after being brutalized by war. It could also be all of us in the future, arizing from our graves at someOne's bequest.
.... just an Idle Thought.
