Follow and turn notifications on. Call it an early warning system.
Thirty modern wounds staged inside immaculate mid century optimism, each with one surreal intrusion telling the truth the set dressing hides.
Test Pattern Family
Everyone is home and everyone is broadcasting. The juice never lands. The toast is burnt in the shape of a waveform. The dog is the only one in that kitchen who can still see you looking. Find the animal. That is how you know.

The Goldfish Commute
$19.95 for a portable world, which even then was a steal. One bowl cracked, and the man inside is doing the most dangerous thing available on this streetcar. He is looking at strangers. Give it about four stops.

Porch Swing, Separate Orbits
I do not think these are bad kids. I think they love each other, and the shadows on that clapboard know it better than the bodies do. The fireflies are dead because I have never seen anybody remember to open the lid.

Recess, Rescheduled
The swings seats are still warm, so they only just left. I took the hopscotch away one square at a time so you would already be across before you noticed. The red ball rolls toward that drain forever.

The Applause Machine
He is still trying, and that is the whole picture. A man sweating under two thousand watts for a room of chrome that is structurally incapable of laughing. In the lens he is eight years old and somebody is about to watch.

Our Lady of the Aluminum Tray
I built a cathedral out of kitchen tile to find out what my century kneels for. The answer was forty-five minutes at three-fifty. One real apple on the altar step, glowing, and nobody has noticed it. Neither did you.

Aisle Seven, Forever
Forty thousand items and not one of them was ever alive. The aisle folds over on itself so you can shop the same shelf until you die, which I understand is the model. Behind the rope, wilted produce under glass. No line.

The All-American
Cut it open. Gears, capsules, folded newsprint, and a good green layer of money exactly where the lettuce goes. I did not invent that. I just used a bigger knife. The ketchup drop has been falling since 1955 and has not landed.

Gelatin Horizon
She holds the whole modern world out at arm's length and it wobbles. Clocks, smokestacks, a telephone dial, the sun shrunk to a garnish, all of it sealed and technically food. Now look at the toaster. She is basically asleep standing up.

Sugar on the Rocks
They are delighted, and that is not the joke, that is the horror. Nobody is forced. The drip is on the house and the sugar glass sets hard around their wrists while they say thank you. The board offers HAPPINESS, MORE, FOREVER.

The Pharmacy Fountain
Cause and cure, same marble counter, same friendly man in white. He builds you a sundae out of capsules and it is beautiful. The customer's ribcage is a lit cabinet of amber bottles. I lit it warm on purpose. It is always warm.

Pastel Rain
This is maybe the prettiest thing I have ever made. A rainbow coming out of an airplane. Sunflowers going chrome one petal at a time. Somebody knitted a cozy for the radio's gas mask. That is an entire country.

Miss Progress 1955
They gave her a sash and a beaker and called her the future, and she believed it the way you believe your name. The judges are mannequins. The confetti is going back up. The only thing growing in there is in her trophy.

Second Opinion
He is not lying, and I need you to sit with that. He believes it. He went to school for it. The diplomas are going soft at the corners. The smoke drew a ribcage and let a flock of birds out of it, and he offered the case again.

The Waiting Room Forecast
Everyone in that row is carrying weather and being polite about it. A thunderhead, a drought, a gray fog two chairs down, and nobody mentions it. They hold their hats and wait. The kid's pinwheel is the only clean wind.
