The concrete is crumbling, the asphalt is cracked, grass is dead and every metal structure is rusted to hell.

Despite all the visual flaws, I really like this setting. There’s some metaphorical b.s. I could spew about how you should stand tall even when you’re broken, or whatever. But I don’t think that’s the point. It’s not much to look at, but the structural composition drew me in anyways. That’s pretty neat… to me at least.

Next week we’re tackling three composition elements, which basically means you’re getting three blogs rolled into one! Get excited!
