Indeterminacy 176


Alex and Gretchen Corazzo
gave a great deal of
thought to whether or not
they would attend the funeral
of a close friend.
At the last
minute they decided they
would go.
Hurriedly they dressed,
rushed out of
the house, arrived
late; the
services had begun.
They took seats
at the back of the chapel.
When
the invitation came to view
the body, they
again deliberated,
finally deciding to do
so.
Coming to the casket,
they discovered they
were at the wrong funeral.

- John Cage
