I watch it for a long while. The movement of the water amazes me. It always does. So swift swirling, rushing, crashing, splashing. I would say it was living.
Cars rush by on their way into Montreal.
I m sure some of the drivers wonder if I m preparing to jump. Let them think what they will. This river will never take my life, replace my breath with its ice-cold waters. No, I will not fall victim to its cold currents like those before me. But those before me, I will never forget.
