''[Holding Kingsley up] was a work of colossal
administration. First came a kind of slow-leak effect,
giving me the immediate worry that Kingsley, when fully
deflated, would sprawl out into the street on both sides
of the island, where there were cars, trucks, sneezing
buses. Next, as I grabbed and tugged, he felt like a
great ship settling on its side: would it right itself or go
under? Then came an impression of overall dissolution
and the loss of basic physical coherence. I groped
around him, looking for places to shore him up, but
every bit of him was falling, dropping, seeking the
lowest level, like a mudslide.''
