[bodytext] => Do not go beyond this point! There is an undertow. Black frogmen leap from lily-pad rafts, a helicopter darts and hovers, like a giant dragonfly dancing over the marsh. Men with long poles stir the shallows, churn the mud, cast hooked lines, grapple the depths. Bodies are pulled from the water. A mother and child bundled, bagged, and put on ice. Carted away in an ambulance. The river flows on; swift currents carry us away, to home, to work, to play. There is an undertow. Do not go beyond this point!
