My brother\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s coffin 
L. B. Mek said:

(he \'decided\' to die)?
this is a disturbing line,
from what appears to be a heartfelt dedication, wonderfully worded
thanks for sharing...
reminded me of Seamus Heaney\'s heart wrenching poem \'Mid-Term Break\'
and that legendary last line:
\'A four-foot box, a foot for every year.\'
