Mars Sleeps
A collection of images designed to present an idea. An experiment I did in college, there are a few changes to fit this sites context.
The end of the day, The haze of the sky, fades...
Flickers of Furmanity, Flash into view, as do the lights...
Motions, as of phantoms, Play within and without, Neon's glow...
Young clowns, Offering waves, Working, working...
Time endures the long black night, Sirens Doppler effect...
Flashes of White and Blue, Split the dark!...
Scattering of refuse, Clouds of dust, Then fades to nothing...
Bottle shatters, Baby cries, Dust Devils dance, Wind Chime's...
Emotions Flare, Yelling echoes, Anger!...
Two crowds of youth, Meet, Exchange violence and disburse...
Ter Plunk, Ter Plunk, Goes an unseen water source...
Furries sure, of next day, Feel safe, At night...
Claxons scream!, Like electronic banshees...
Not my water mine, Little concern, Forgotten...
A Marcat wails, Like a gibbering Dolphin, fades into the cold night...
Pneumatic hiss!, Pressure door... SHOOOP!
Mars is quiet, Peacefulness descends, Relax, Sleep, Dream...
---THE END---
