If the centers are emptying outthen that's our opportunity.
The empty spaces
are there for us to fill
with creativity, art, colour, passion.
The empty spaces
are there for nature to fill
with greenery,
taking back what's hers.
Like this tree…
you probably can't tell, but it literally broke through the side of a building
to burst into the air.
It's all being cleared out
and we can build something beautiful
in the space.
Don't run from the cities, don't escape the small towns… make them yours. The suburbs have a lot more falling apart to do before they'll be habitable; the decaying towns and cities though… they're not just tattered sadness; they're potential.
that's very abstract.
how do you do it?
