excerpt from unfinished novel "The Boat Is Gone"

He awoke with a start.
"Grand Central Station" the conductor announced.
"42th street Grant Central Station" repeated for posterity.

He scrambled up and out just as the doors of the subway train closed behind him.

He splashed into a small puddle of liquid encircling a discarded soda can.
The sweet water expanding upon impact of his shoe.
