Confession In A Light-Wrapped Room, Carla Thomas

I began to lose confidence in Dr. Swain when I entered his waiting room for the first time and found it was painted pink. In all the years it must have taken him to finish his Ph.D. in psychology, you'd think he'd have learned something about the psychology of color. Pink is for little girls' rooms, for powder rooms, for ladies' rooms. Pink is the color fathers want to wrap their baby girls in.

The breathlessness gathered until he was drowning again. He reached for the mask-translucent rubber, green-attached by a rubber umbilical to an ugly green cylinder which rose from behind the end table like some leafless prehistoric plant. He placed the mask over mouth and nose, snapped the elastic into his hair, grasped the handle at the top of the cylinder. He shut his eyes, braced himself, and concentrated on being full. But for all their ballooning, for all their assaulting of other organs, his lungs' appetite wouldn't quell. He screwed the handle all the way counter-clockwise.

The people came early on a cold day to look over the belongings of Elmer and Verna Turnitt. City husbands and wives walked the aisles of old household articles by a tar-papered shed, lingering and nodding when they found a antique for their collections. Farmers who came to buy kicked at the tires of the machinery or checked piles of chain for broken links or looked at the engine hour-meters of the tractors lined up. Older farmers in overalls and denim oats, there for the ritual of the thing, stood in small groups, smoking and spitting tobacco juice, clapping their …
