    after the storm I went out and stood on the trunk of the enormous tree that had crashed in the yard, attempting to assess the damage. Great chunks of earth had fallen away at the edges of our property and as my eye fell on the stream bed a wave of panic and fear swept over me. It wasn't a stream bed any more, but a canyon, impossibly wide and deep, with crumbling edges of soft clay. I stared down inro it and thought: this is the end. That is me. Thatis my life.
