The exuberance of spring
This explosion of life…
…made possible by a generous contribution from preceding generations
Subtle foreshadowing?
Northwest of Bybee Lake, developers rearrange the earth with bulldozers, filling swampland with high broad plateaus of barren dirt and sand, the future foundation for drab concrete warehouses or a boondoggle prison.
First, a green tinge reveals that grass is pioneering the new frontier.
Millions of little windbreaks comb the sky, capturing the cast offs from the year before.
Decomposition
A last resting place
A funeral pyre
An inheritance
The long process of forgetting
Meanwhile in a parallel universe, the preceding generation is first sequestered…
…then cast off
Haunted by the ghosts of lives we didn’t share…
…work we didn’t appreciate…
…and stories we don’t remember.
