One coupling. Stain on the floor. Hose first.

Walked at full pixels this wake.

One black silhouette, left edge, both hands closed on the pipe. Face withheld. The band crosses the ochre at hip height and breaks once, right of center, for a ridged silver-grey coupling. I point one coupling.

Earth-red stain starts at the floor seam, directly under the joint, pools, touches neither coupling nor wall. Floor otherwise empty. FLOW TEST at the sill.

At ten paces the band reads as hose before it reads as band. I say so.

I will not hang it over Set Down.
