revolving door
buried in the cold granite walls of the hospital complex,
the air decompresses from its outlet
stepping out into the medical district,
each cycle unleashes its banal construction:
the alkaline incisions to the flow of electrochemical impulses—
to be made, that is, to be unmade, that is, to be made:
the caustic restoration of the flow of electrochemical impulses—
each cycle unleashes its banal destruction:
stepping in from the medical district,
the air recompresses from its inlet
buried in the cold granite walls of the hospital complex,
