In a State of Flux

They say if you wait by the river long enough you will see the body of your enemy float by. Hap had made numerous enemies in his younger days, and though he had lived by the river many years now not once had any of their corpses appeared on the waters. Sometimes he imagined the body was his, that he had finally thrown himself into the current to be drowned or dashed to pieces on the rocks. But more often, Hap got the feeling that the river was already carrying him off, not all at once but little by little.
