Medium-up straight eighths feel.
Is about reconciling with the futility of the many situations we find ourselves in as a society. Composed in memory of the countless faces awash with dread I witnessed in Times Square moments after Trump surpassed Clinton on the night of the election in November 2016. The look of hopelessness in the people's eyes was almost as disturbing as the stillness and silence in a place that would typically be bustling, and was akin to a scene from a dystopian movie.
The western shore of Manhattan, where a shipyard now lies dormant.
