Could you not reach into the insect's mind, and see that my killing it ended all perception the insect had, however little, ended the universe as far as that insect was concerned. Of course it was only an insect, and nothing can be implied about turned tables, about life after death, about my ability to answer you after my death, or to even perceive you. Of course you could. And I knew a poet who would.
