By the time the sun was supposed to be making it’s decent into the earths crest, the ground had already been created into a reflective surface. Rain slowly and patiently falls from the grey overcast sky. Headlights of cars beamed toward the puddle filled concrete causing a glimmer of reflection. A still image in time sits waiting to be maneuvered again. Made for movement, now locked tight against a black painted upside down metal U attached to the ground. Rusted with age and exploration, the two wheels stood still, soaked in water droplets from the clouds cold tears. Each droplet dripping with the wind. One after the other free falling from the metal surface to the earths hard ground. Then finally finding a crease in the wet sidewalk, before drifting off into the puddle that sat close by.

To the left of the object, a sidewalk sat patiently waiting for the next pair of soaked squeaky shoes to come strolling by. Held on tight to the sole by the white strings uniquely intertwined forming stability. The person on which they live walks by unaware consumed with the thoughts that flutter their ever evolving mind. Too focused on where they are heading to recognize the object that contains youthful adventures.
To the right of the object, the asphalt creates a white smokey steam. Starting from the ground and rising up. As the steam surfaces, the cars swipe by. Becoming aware of its fading, the smoke dissipates into the distant air. One car after the other passes, leaving the object motionless.

Scaling back to the object and it’s two wheels at tandem, the owner slowly walks towards the inanimate entity. He reaches down with his key in his left hand and glossed over black hat in the other to release the frames body. His clothes look as if he just stepped out of an Indiana Jones movie set. Rising from the ground, the man tosses his key into his soaked black backpack, nudges his brown curly hair into the surface of his glossed black hat, and flips one leg over the waterlogged seat. The stationary object now fluidly moveable.
