Fall into lost adolescence, unlocking quadrangles at 6 am alternate days 3.18/ hr pays for 300/ mo studio in ship of fools--one free night in south side lockup--holding the breath through smell of formaldehyde in Culver Hall, until the day training my replacement, we open the doors.

Indeed, a room of cadavers, the overbearing inflation of dread's illusory lightness--1950s rubber hot water bottle popping its plug, warm water puddling the linoleum tiles--becomes real.
