I'm walking on a flyway over green water far below. There are small white sphere's of styrofoam in the water, on top and underwater. The water has risen so that some of their tethers are too short to reach the top.

I walk down the stairs to the water level. I'm wearing a long wool overcoat and jeans. My wallet is inside my coat pocket (the way it was in real life the night before when I went to the symphony). I think that it will be OK if my money and ID get wet. I jump in the cold water. A masculine person pulls me out, as if to say, "that's enough".
