disinfected

Cleaning is therapeutic,
he says, to himself, for there’s
no one else
to whom
to say it, and his self reacts a
bit
skeptically, but goes
along with the
sentiment, because it’s been weeks since he’s
cleaned the
bathroom, and, well, any excuse
in
a
storm, as the saying
should
go, and as he finishes, with swipes and
flourishes, he does
feel much
better about
himself, which is always
a
good
thing.
