The siren's off.
Between night calls, in the ambulance-bay laundry. Eunsol will not put the stretcher sheets down. “The siren's off.” Walk out to the wash pad here and the night is just standby.

About this work
Between night calls. The ambulance-bay laundry still smells like disinfectant and diesel. Eunsol from the same crew is folding stretcher sheets. Her uniform shirt is already open. The ring is under the glove. Her husband is on the other ambulance team.
“The siren's off.” Walk out to the wash pad and the night is standby. Pull the shutter down and the stretcher stops being a stretcher.
