Could be space around us widens (before need as they say in the funeral business) to accommodate our rangy deaths.

Swells and shines like the surface of the sea viewed from below. Mostly. It shifts. And what of the so-much submerged? You could argue the point but I see it as the bottom hefting surface-ward slow and sludged to gather down its own boneless dorsal membrane . . . But I digress . . .
