Second Look Weekend, Yale School of Medicine

The woman in the Case

Western Reserve hoodie is

in love with nephrology. I

could never do that, says her

giggle of a friend. Really?

she says, staring through

the forest of melancholy

residents. I would rotate

that. I would totally

rotate that. All choices

are so. Even the division

that leads one to caress 

your neck and another

to repair your incompetent

heart. Nothing more

than picking your favorite

boy in the boy band

and waking up

to that poster--torn

so carefully from Tiger

Beat--on your wall,

each morning, forever.
