POST-PLANETARY CITIES
"A strange kind of entropy...Things fell in on themselves. It was the ultimate gift...Those of us left wandered in a desert where nothing lacked, and only an infinite nostalgia allowed us to think we continued to exist, that we had existed, that anything was real...All things in the universe, speaking to us, but we could not understand."
