— a shiny inner wrist;
— steam rising from a wet sink as a hot frying pan is laughingly tossed into it;
— gouts of sperm circling a plughole, before being sluiced down the full length of a tall house;
— a river rushing nonsensically upstream, its wave and wash lit by half a dozen chasing torchbeams;
— another river, broad and grey, the direction of its flow disguised by a stiff wind exciting the surface;
— bathwater long gone cold behind a locked door.
