Work Text:
Objects, of course, aren't nearly as important as people.
When there is destruction, everyone remembers the people. Other things are considered important only if people are in close proximity.
Once abandoned, objects are forgotten. Dismissed. They will rust - or rot - and never be thought of.
And yet the morning sun still touches them.
A car wreck, in a forest.
A window pane, cracked across.
Books with words ripped from them.
A robot, lying in pieces on a highway.
Prison bars, extremely bent.
A white top, stained permanently red.
So much destroyed, and yet no-one cares. Or even remembers.
Not today.
