The blonde Viking laundrywoman wears her braids up. She works the washers and dryers throughout the night. She’s easy to speak with at break time. Her sharp-tongued girlfriend stridently mars the hospital hallways with the black heels of her white boots. I’m continuously mopping and polishing the floors.

me likeee boots..
Why is Ride Of The Valkyries’ corkscrewing through my mind?
My grandmother was that Swedish laundress. Literally.
This piece took me so off guard I didn’t even start to daydream about boots -
Great contrasts, the women, their natures, the black and white. Nice resonance.
