three lines

dead deer
truck drives by with the words
"Meat Packing, Inc."

This actually happened. Walking to the subway to get to work, I had to pass a small wood. One day I saw a dead deer lying in the leaves and just a minute later, an 18-wheeler with the meat-packing legend swept past.
This jarring image stayed in my head the whole day.
