described as a progression of exchanges
but there is no progress here

they will hit the floor at the same time,
hundreds of feet apart.

― Simona Prilogan

Even with a bullet in their gut, they'd go on picking up old shoes that 'might come in handy.' The way a sheep, lying on its side in a meadow, will keep on grazing with its dying breath. Most people don't die until the last moment; others start twenty years in advance, sometimes more. Those are the unfortunates.”
