October 4th - 9:08 PM
9:08 PM: that we left behind at dawn. We hear the temperature drop and the humidity grow in the louder sounds of traffic. In the shadows,
October 4th - 8:00 PM
8:00 PM: the grey clouds dissolve into the blue of dusk, losing shade after shade in the ocean. We return to the cold
October 4th - 7:16 PM
7:16 PM: we forget the day must end. The colours turn once more, dragged into existence by the low sun, the late hour. Soon,
October 4th - 6:34 PM
6:34 PM: so from there on, we have to keep watching more closely. The details become more important. While the minutes pass,
October 4th - 5:11 PM
5:11 PM: a deep breath in the chaos of this October day; the quiet lasts for a little while, as long as any quiet lasts in the sky,
October 4th - 4:07 PM
4:07 PM: when the light pierces through the clouds, it is impossible to ignore. It is like a second sunrise,
October 4th - 12:47 PM
12:47 PM: but the sun is here now, a dazzling presence overhead that washes everything out. We take a walk

October 4th - 8:44 AM
8:44 AM: the blue of the sky is an intense turquoise at the zenith, almost like it is making up for something. We hear
October 4th - 7:58 AM
7:58 AM: but the day comes alive that much brighter for the chill in the wind. The sunrise is too quick for how long we waited for it. We blink, and
October 4th - 6:54 AM
6:54 AM: suddenly, early morning mist swallows the sky. Under the streetlights, it is the coldest it has been all night,
October 4th - 5:01 AM
5:01 AM: we think we are only now getting used to the darkness. Our expert is denying their sleepiness while their eyelids are drooping, and
October 4th - 4:28 AM
4:28 AM: on a wind that is drying our eyes. Each star has its own halo, and our yawns are getting larger and larger. We long for our bed, but

3:41 AM: we feel lightheaded looking up. We only notice the clouds by the way they block the starlight now, rushing between our fingers
