Patients

Someone is wearing brown shoes. Ones that look like penny loafers, ones that look like blue shoes. Beige slacks and scrubs lifted and carried them into new shoes, and there are a million shoes coming in and out the revolving doors. Conversation flickers and illuminates into busy back-up binds that throw up into reality. Plasters of plastic white-on-white skin. With small detailed letterings of a label, a label, and numbers... with a finger that beckons you to, "Follow Me."
