Field guide No. 1142
Midnight laundromat tunnel
Spin cycle, long haul.
A ribbed steel drum tunnel runs from the open door of a washing machine across the tiled floor of a laundromat lit green and red, ending in a heap of clothes. It is the only machine here with a destination.
Field noteA ribbed drum tunnel leads from a washer door across the tiles; spin cycle, long haul, no contradiction.
