The Remorseful

C. M. Kornbluth

The Remorseful

IT DOES NOT matter when it happened. This is because he was alone and time had ceased to have

any meaning for him. At first he had searched the rubble for other survivors, which kept him busy for a

couple of years. Then he wandered across the continent in great, vague quarterings, but the plane one

day would not take off and he knew he would never find anybody anyway. He was by then in his forties,

and a kind of sexual delirium overcame him. He searched out and pored over pictures of women,

preferring leggy, high-breasted types. They haunted his dreams; he masturbated incessantly with closed

eyes, tears leaking from them and running down his filthy bearded face. One day that phase ended for no

reason and he took up his wanderings again, on foot. North in the summer, south in the winter on

weed-grown U.S. 1, with the haversack of pork and beans on his shoulders, usually talking as he

trudged, sometimes singing.

It does not matter when it happened. This is because the Visitors were eternal; endless time stretched

before them and behind, which mentions only two of the infinities of infinities that their "lives" included.

Precisely when they arrived at a particular planetary system was to them the most trivial of irrelevancies.
