"Your Anti-Pastoral Leaded Coffin provides you with a place where you may retreat to, even in Fortitude, and avoid feeling like things must move slowly, that work must be fruitful, and that you have a home. You are not sure why you care enough to create such a thing, exactly, except that you occasionally have horrific images of yourself twenty years from now as one of those pastoral people who stare out at the sunset and say, “Yup.” This must not be!"
