Are you speaking of bodily death here? This is what is commonly referred

to as "literal death."

 

lit‚er•al (-ƒl) adj.1. in accordance with the strict meaning of a word or

text.

Since my short answer was unclear... I'll try a long one :-)

 

It seems to me... when it stops being 'gorgeous'... it is also most likely

the same

instant, when Life*... which had been motivating a particular assemblage of

atoms

and molecules into cooperative action... 'recycles'. The particular

assemblage of

'matter', which is no longer motivated into cooperative effort, begins to

succumb to

the accumulating effects of entrophy. A condition, which the term 'literal

death' would

seem to apply... at least from my 'point of view'... at this 'point in time'.

 

(I prefer my short answer... rather than this, "baffle 'em with BS," long

one :-)
