i put on

it feels like mad max beyond thunderdome here. i've never actually seen the movie, but kinda get the gist from the buzz when it first came out in the 80s. it's become what people in the 80s thought was futuristic. same as it ever was. where's my flying car?

we're trapped in a wasteland. harsh elements. manmade skylines and artificial beauty. surrounded by stark bleakness. there's beauty in the nature of the place still. opposite of my lush, bountiful hawaii. yesterday the sunset made me pause. gasp from the beauty of the colors in the sky. muted, unreplicable. fleeting and gold. pale. hawaii's sky is vivid and vibrant. the blue almost crushes and overpowers you. i want to eat it.

my whole life i have to live near popular tourist meccas. my humdrum is their vacation.
