"Life," he emphasized above the continuous, macabre rattle of a piano. In a breathless, hot dawn pouring redly into the grey city street, he swayed like a pendulum on the steaming pavement.
I watched my life run redly through the wasp waist of the transparent glass, then suddenly the sand ceased to flow, half in the upper bulb, half in the lower.
