Satire
Chili, like in Italy
A fly whirs its wings and flies away from a flickering bulb in the corner of a hospital corridor. The pistachio-green paint smells of newness and sterile freshness. The metal that connects lined-up chairs, obediently in a row of five along the walls opposite the consulting room doors, matches the green. It’s 8 p.m., so only one is still open. Emergency care must be accessible at any time. You never know when something might happen to you.

To Company Men & Coporate Mythologies
The most important thing you can own is a strong sense of smell. Melody knew the exact tensile strength of the glass that separated her from the street. She had tested it - and been tested by it. Over time, she had learned the exact depths of the moral bankruptcy of the men who stood behind it. She crossed Security with her key/ID card - and scaled the high-rise in minutes. She heard the outspoken wind as the weight and force of the elevator car pushed the wind to the ground floor. The 41st floor was a wall of tempered glass encased in steel. The floor stunk of a thin, quiet desperation and the very same bankruptcy from the elevator bank to her cubicle - but, on the surface, she only smelled the freshly shampooed carpet.
