The afterlife that looks like a meadow.

The Greeks did not imagine paradise as a place above this one. They imagined a field, the light easier and the air softer, where the dead walked through their old lives without urgency. A meadow of small yellow heads, gathered in a long stone bowl, holds something of that idea. You arrive, you stand, you stay a while.
