I have in my mind the man's face.
When he's upright it's taut, every sq. bit of skin used on his bones.
But when he's horizontal, there's an excess that comes from somewhere to droop down, clouding the eye sockets, fleshing the cheek hollows, and pulling the mouth into a drooping, head-heavy rose.
In this position with the skin he looks saddened, like he could cry, but also infinitely moved by feeling sad.

That is how I remember it.
