a seam where the wallpaper
comes
together,
the client tells me
over the phone. is there
anything
you can do to fix this horrible
situation,
i can't take my eyes
off it when i'm in the room.
i can't sleep at night.
will the wallpaper
fall off the wall, is there
something i should do,
or can you come over here
and fix it,
soon?
i never thought i'd have
to see seams.
it's wallpaper i tell her.
you know that, right?
not paint.
i'm home now, she says.
please, please help me.
okay. i tell her,
getting out of bed,
turning on the light.
calm down, relax.
i'll be there in a while,
around midnight.
have a glass of water,
some aspirin,
take deep breaths.
i'm on my way.
try not to stare at it,
close your eyes and pray.
