Poison

A 1950s kitchen. A radio murmurs news of polio. A boy’s father lies unconscious on the floor. Three stories spiral: a suburban father tries to kill his son, a scientist’s experiment scatters a disfiguring plague, two prisoners burn through their last days. A Haynes fever dream, coiled tight as a vacuum-sealed jar.
