Grace walks home from the pool the long . . . way, through the snow. Tonight the children could not keep their heads up. They don't understand, thinking like they do, how to float. They need not move. Grace has shown them many times. She has stretched out like a flag until she's weightless. But the children have many fears, some of the water, and some of other things, and it seems that nothing like that will ever be necessary.

It' s not as bad as a medium," Dale said. I didn't know what he was talking about, so I looked amused. "It has a flexibility of form that lets you almost put yourself in the frame.'' I thought about how hard you'd have to hit someone's nose for it to bleed, remembering many times when I've gotten hit in the nose with a football, an elbow, a cabinet door. It would sting like death; but when I put my hand up there would be nothing there, no blood. Then other times I've woken up in the morning, needing to …

He checked his watch. He noticed for the first time the bent-angle of the second hand against the graph as it crosses the three and moves on to the four . "Three minutes, " he thought, as he looked down the street. No one was there. He thought of air , the excess of air. '' Air moves, " he said aloud. "No one stops the air. " He watched the chalk-mark that an airplane leaves fade and disappear from the sky. "You cannot stop the air," he told it.

Morgan said the holes will be patched in the fall. As in I would get over him. We were eating lunch and there was a crumb on the outside of his left hand below his pinky. "A bolt of lightning-perhaps Navajo-symbolic, perhaps classic comic-book-seems to bridge both worlds ," he said. I am a comic book and he's really not a fat pseudo tribal whatnot. I couldn't even bother myself to think of the proper word. His vocabulary was tiresome. I watched the tight skin, like plum vinyl, across his lips. I imagined a storm with earthquakes. A waiter in …

"The only African word my mother knew.''

Opening sentence, beginning in media res, preferably with a smallish use of originality of phrasing or, more preferably yet, with the sly introduction of a character not normally seen in the average life; or best of all, a normal situation alluded to in terms that show some very quirky assumptions about human life.
