A glimmering metropolis, doomed. Roaming metallic technology. They are marked with several melted chrome scars. That is how we identify the real between the things that we've created. Have you ever wondered if streetlights are becoming our northern stars? The lamps seem to be all we can see, the pollution of light dims the stars. They walk, restless.. Not programed to sleep. We have labeled ourselves as gods. And merely human, we wouldn't survive our futuristic children.. A metropolis, proves that all that shimmers must surely fade, someday. |

"doomed. Roaming metallic technology. They are marked with several melted chrome scars." ______________________ Wow, well expressed, very poignant with clever images. Melissa Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world! |

I really liked this write, Kaoru. Good imagery, especially in that 'roaming metallic technology' line. Yes, I've wondered about those lights too. |
