You are tired of injuries, waking each morning to the same silence, the same malady. Everything here is white, the colour of science. Medicines come and leave messages in the mind, in each blood cell, for a time.
Someone sends letters to god and beatifies friends, saints of pills and electricity.
And the lady who always wears a hat is certain that the flowers her husband brought are red and yellow poisons she will inhale and then die. You do not speak to them, they are different, they are mad and might exhibit danger. It would be useless to scream, no-one would listen, you would have wasted your time. You know more than the doctor, he has no secrets you have not already learned. You want his freedom, his place in the world and make a plan of how to get it.
