‘The sunne always shineth upon me.’
– unknown
The fragile light of dusk and dawn fall over dry fields and wide empty streets. Only traces of human presence can be perceived. We are somewhere in Texas, barren indifferent landscapes contrast with the intimacy of voices recollecting distant memories from a past that seems to be getting closer after every word. In the end, we may ask: Why is there beauty in the sky after the sun sets if darkness will inevitably consume it into nothingness?
